US EditionICE Agents Seen 'Terrorizing' Mother During Arrest At Bay Area Airport, CA Senator Says
The woman and her family had an outstanding 2019 removal order to Guatemala, officials said, amid an immigration enforcement effort criticized by local politicians and human rights groups.
- On Sunday, March 22, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested Angelina Lopez-Jimenez and her 9-year-old daughter, Wendy Godinez-Lopez, at San Francisco International Airport while they attempted to travel to Miami.
- Transportation Security Administration officials allegedly flagged the pair on Friday, sharing their names with ICE due to a final removal order issued by an immigration judge in 2019. Department of Homeland Security stated they were subject to repatriation to Guatemala.
- Viral videos of the arrest prompted public outcry, though San Francisco Police Department officers maintained they were not involved in the incident. SFO spokesperson Doug Yakel told KTVU the event was "isolated," with airport operations continuing without disruption.
- State Senator Scott Wiener criticized the incident as bringing "nothing but fear and chaos," while Representative Doris Matsui stated she was "deeply angered" by the footage. DHS defended the action, noting the arrest occurred before ICE was deployed to airports.
- The arrest coincides with the deployment of ICE agents to a dozen major airports to assist with crowd management during a federal shutdown. Critics continue to challenge the legality of sharing TSA data with immigration officials, citing a judge's ruling that the IRS broke the law approximately 42,695 times.
