🚨BREAKING: In Chicago, ICE agents were caught on video assaulting a local chaplain for filming, and asking questions, about what was happening on her own street… AFTER the arrest was already made.
In the video, Alley Henny, a Black chaplain, is standing with her back against a parked car while recording.
An ICE agent is already pushing her backward as she simply asks:
“What did he do?”
But here’s what makes this situation even more disturbing…
The man had already been detained… He was already INSIDE the ICE vehicle.
The arrest was over.
That means, there was no active arrest taking place for her to “interfere with.”
Yet, multiple agents surrounded her anyway.
One agent yells, “Get back! We have a warrant for his arrest. Get out of here.”
She responds, “This is my neighborhood.”
The agent’s response?
“I don’t care.”
Then, while she’s already backed against a car, and surrounded by TWO agents… a THIRD agent rushes over, grabs her, and forcefully shoves her down the street while screaming, “GET BACK! I ALREADY TOLD YOU ONCE!”
And just to be clear…
She wasn’t stopping an arrest.
She wasn’t obstructing agents from reaching a suspect.
She wasn’t preventing agents from taking someone into custody.
The suspect was ALREADY IN THE VEHICLE.
So, this entire situation raises serious concerns about excessive force and retaliation against protected speech.
Because once the situation is already controlled, there’s no reason for that level of force against someone who’s just recording and asking questions.
And if that kind of response isn’t checked, and held accountable, it starts to send a very dangerous message…
That recording and questioning government actions can be met with physical violence, and intimidation.
And that’s exactly what the constitution is meant to prevent.
