Exclusive: #ICE officers in #Minnesota directed not to interact with 'agitators' as they carry out #Trump #immigration crackdown, according to new orders reviewed by Reuters.

The new guidance, offering the most detailed look so far at how operations would change after 2 fatal #shootings of #US citizens protesting in #Minneapolis, also orders ICE officers only to target immigrants who have criminal charges or convictions.

They have moved slowly, encumbered by a belief that a reversion to the old ways of #federal - #state cooperation might still be possible. The killings of #ReneeGood & #AlexPretti — & the federal response to those killings — ought to put this lingering nostalgia to rest. A return to the days of state-federal cooperation will not happen unless the #states reassert themselves to protect their citizens & punish federal #lawlessness.

It tells them that even if they effectively execute a #US #citizen who presents no threat on camera on a public street, they will face no consequences—a recipe for future tragedies. The state’s interest in finding a way to at least create some deterrence to deadly federal lawlessness is not just a matter of #justice: It is also a way of keeping its people safe moving forward.

Liam & his dad were taken across the country to the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas — an #ICE #detention facility [#ConcentrationCamp] for families.

The father has filed a lawsuit against #DHS Secretary #KristiNoem, #USAttorney General #PamBondi & other #federal officials.

#DHS claimed Liam’s father is an “illegal alien” from Ecuador & said agents took the boy with them after the father said he wanted Liam to stay with him.

But an attorney for Liam’s family said Conejo committed no crimes & followed “all the established protocols” for legally seeking #asylum in the #US, including “showing up for their court hearings.”

A new #Minnesota website lays out evidence to counter #federal #misinformation after #immigration agents fatally shot 2 residents during the #Trump admin’s immigration crackdown, deepening an unprecedented divide, experts said Monday.

Minnesota also went to court to preserve evidence from the Saturday shooting of #AlexPretti after its own investigators were blocked from the scene by federal authorities.

Marc Prokosch, a lawyer representing Ramos’ family, said he is still not sure of the exact current whereabouts of Liam & his dad. He believes, based on the experience of other clients he has worked with, that they are currently in #Texas in a family holding cell.

“Every step of their #immigration process has been doing what they’ve been asked to do, & so this is just…cruelty,” Prokosch said….

“Another adult living in the home was outside & begged the agents to let him take care of the small #child, & was refused,” Stenvik said.

“Instead,” she said, “the agent took the child out of the still-running car, led him to the door & directed him to knock on the door asking to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home, essentially using a 5-year-old as bait.”

“Why detain a 5-year-old? You can’t tell me that this #child is going to be classified as a violent criminal,” Zena Stenvik, the Columbia Heights superintendent, told reporters Wednesday.

According to Stenvik, masked agents apprehended 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos in his driveway on Tuesday as he returned home from school with his father.
