Not to disrespect people here but please don’t answer if you’re just looking to say a comment that doesn’t give a good explanation or context. Honestly I’m a bit tired of responses like “cause they’re corrupt” or “because they’re fascists”.
I’m hoping someone with experience in law enforcement or law can chime in and show what the actual laws are and why they could be skirting things. What ROE Ice agents might have. I’m also looking at why I don’t see any large law societies bringing these violations if there are any to the courts. I remember years ago there were entire law firms with staff dedicated to areas like this. Why is that not happening today?
It doesn’t matter if there are entire battalions of lawyers looking for it. Persecutors have the monopoly on getting people charged with crimes.
The other question you can ask is: why isn’t the entire press on fire complaining about government workers committing crimes all day over all over the country?
Who owns the press and who benefits from the crimes? This is why there were laws preventing media consolidation and extensive corporate ownership before they were dismantled over the last 50 years.
I had to look this up and I’m surprised that in most states private prosecution is barred. In the UK it’s still legal, if expensive and uncommon.
Ouch, I never even considered the idea of private prosecution in criminal courts. Looks like a remedy that is worse than the disease.
