A man and a woman are facing charges of assaulting a federal officer after Homeland Security Investigations agents tried to arrest the man Wednesday for overstaying his student visa. The pair drove to police headquarters with the HSI agent “involuntarily” in Frazier’s vehicle.

    I’m pretty sure he was not detained. And, I’m pretty sure that just overstaying staying a visa is not actually a crime. I’m pretty sure that entering their car without a warrant for arrest like that is a crime, and gives a reasonable person fear of imminent bodily harm or death.

    I’m pretty sure ICE will do whatever the fuck they want in this political climate.

      That didn’t make it legal, and when you behave illegally and in a manner that is threatening….

      Well.

      It’s only going to be a matter of time before they start catching lead.
