What The Actual F*@k? American CITIZEN detained by ICE and Judge says:

 before I get to my comments here is the excerpt from The Hill:

An American citizen was held in a Florida jail at the request of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) despite the county judge being able to see a U.S. birth certificate in court. 

Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez, who was born in the United States, was detained Wednesday in Florida by the state’s highway patrol and was charged with illegally entering the Sunshine State as an “unauthorized alien” under a state law that has been temporarily blocked by a judge, the Florida Phoenix news outlet reported Thursday. 

Leon County Judge LaShawn Riggans said Thursday that despite the charge against Lopez-Gomez being dropped, she did not have the authority to release the 20-year-old because ICE asked Leon County Jail to hold Lopez-Gomez. 

 So what the actual F*@k? An American citizen is arrested for violating a bogus state law that is blocked by the courts? Why is Florida law enforcement, 'enforcing' it? Why aren't they being indicted for ignoring a court order.

And once presented with the evidence that the man incarcerated is not a migrant but actually a US citizen, why he wasn't immediately released is impossible to understand. I don't give a shit who ICE thinks they are or what ever authority they might have, if they detain an American citizen thinking he is a migrant, once proven otherwise he is free to go. And ICE should also be hauled into court for violating a citizen's civil rights. This too is a no brainer. 

THE GOVERNMENT AT EVERY LEVEL NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR MISDEEDS EVERY DAY AND EVERY INSTANCE!
