ICE Detains Chicago TV Producer, Sparks Outrage
On Friday, WGN news producer Debbie Brockman was arrested in Chicago’s Lincoln Square neighborhood by masked ICE agents, reportedly for obstructing their work. Video footage captured the agents forcing Brockman to the ground and handcuffing her before placing her in an unmarked van. According to the Chicago Tribune, Brockman was taken to an unknown location. The arrest follows a court order restricting federal officials’ use of riot weapons on the press and protestors, due to the escalating use of violent tactics by federal immigration officials in the Chicago area.
