And that’s basically it!
FTA:
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.
There's at least cause for a citizens arrest at that point, and while you're not supposed to remove the person you're citizens arresting from the area... driving off to a police station is perhaps the most logically "okay" exception to that.
whatever comes out of this in the courts is going to be fucking metal, though.
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.
