ICE arrested a 6-year-old boy with leukemia at immigration court. His family is suing.

A Honduran mother and her two children — ages 6 and 9 — sued the Trump administration over their arrest at Los Angeles Immigration Court, the first lawsuit challenging the arrests of children under a new ICE directive targeting courthouses.

Key excerpts:

The family had been staying with a relative in Los Angeles for the previous seven months after crossing the border legally for a court appointment through the now-defunct CBP One App to seek asylum in October of last year. They had been granted parole status in the U.S. while they waited for their day in immigration court.

"They were crying in fear. One of the agents at one point lifted up his shirt, which displayed the gun that he was carrying," Mukherjee said. “The 6-year-old boy was terrified to see the gun. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing. No one offered him a change of clothing for many hours.”

The 6-year-old boy has been diagnosed with leukemia and has missed a medical appointment to be treated for worsening symptoms

The Texas Civil Rights Project says the family has been placed in expedited removal, which allows for rapid deportation without a court hearing. The family’s attorneys fear they could be deported before their lawsuit is heard.

    Fucking KiwiFarms has been running for years and years literally causing the death of multiple people. But if we say anything other than RIP on a post about Hitlers death it’s going to get the FBI involved to arrest Jordun or something ridiculous.

    .world is peak shitlibism.

        It’s the alt-right hate harassment community. Not a place to ever visit.

        No one person has ever been instanced banned from Quokk.au?

            Oh that’s my sub, I certainly wouldn’t have banned you if that’s all it was and it was directed at billionaires. I hope someone shoots ‘em all.

            Might have been one of the other mods? As we swapped to PieFed I can’t go back and see. Either way the ban wouldn’t exist at present due to the move, so you’re welcome to post again.

              I dunno. Some cunt invited me over there saying I wouldn’t get banned for calling for action against rulers but then I got banned for it. I’m guessing it was some twat trying to get people banned. Flying Squid did that a lot before he went insane and killed himself. Joke’s on them cause I got a bot to make 1k alts so I never run out
