RI judge intervenes after ICE wrongfully detains Superior Court intern


The ICE-holes threatened to smash the judge's car windows.
A dramatic scene unfolded in Rhode Island when a high school intern at the Supreme Court was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents before a judge intervened, according to the state’s Judicial office. Ultimately, the ICE agents were eventually forced to admit that the intern was not their intended target.

WPRI reports:

Superior Court Judge Joseph McBurney insisted the agents had the wrong person. It was not until ICE verified their information and admitted the intern was not their intended target that he was released.

Multiple sources told Target 12 that Rhode Island sheriffs earlier noticed someone taking photos of the intern inside the courthouse and in Superior Court Judge McBurney’s courtroom. When approached, the individual identified himself as an ICE agent and was told to abide by standard courthouse rules, and to stop taking pictures.
