ICE dressed up like utility workers from Tucson Electric Poweroffer "free estimates" if invited inside.
Young boy fell for the trick & opened doorluckily a neighbor ran over to stop them.
"Theyre lying! Theyre not in uniform," she yelled. "Dont let them in, they dont have a warrant."
Christine Cariño started video recording the agents & intervenedjust before the young boy was about to let the agents into his homewhich would have made his stepfather vulnerable to arrest.
Tucson Electric Power said they were not told in advance of agents impersonating their utility workers as part of the ICE raid.

May they receive everything they deserve, and could we please speed up the process!

(6,831 posts)hiding your face while wielding state power, don't be surprised when you're called Gestapo.
Either your operation is transparent and lawful, or you're skulking around behind masks and pretensean unspoken confession that you know what you're doing wouldn't stand up to scrutiny. You dont need critics to label you Gestapoyour own behavior and conduct do it for you.
