Misconduct by ICE can now be reported to the Colorado attorney general
The Colorado attorney general’s office launched a new section of its public complaint system specifically for misconduct by federal agents, such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
“Nobody is above the rule of law, including federal agents such as ICE or border patrol,” Attorney General Phil Weiser said in a statement. “This new reporting form is about keeping our communities safe and reminding them that we have their back. If you see misconduct from a federal agent, we want to hear about it.”
Unlawful activity by federal agents could include use of excessive force, unlawful searches or arrests, wrongful detentions, interference with voting, or other civil rights violations, according to the complaint page.
A news release from Weiser’s office says information submitted through the complaint system will help the attorney general’s office ensure federal accountability and identify patterns of misconduct by federal agents. His office will review reports and share necessary information with government offices or oversight agencies, including local district attorneys or elected members of Congress.
