Quick update: Yesterday, Cory Booker was reported to join Chris Van Hollen to go to Salvador. John Lewis would be proud. It’s a good problem; necessary problems.
I could not stop thinking about this woman:
She is one of the agents who arrested the student graduated with tufts Rumeysa Öztürk last month. The raid was led by Ice, but we do not know for which agency this woman to work.
If you watch the video, this female agent comes in the second wave. The first agent to get in touch with Öztürk is a man who struck her, as by accident, then grabs her phone. It is clear that at the start, Öztürk thinks she is attacked. But then another man enters behind her. She is quickly surrounded and they start to remove her backpack. Finally, they handcuffed it and bring it to an unmarked vehicle.
If this happened in Oaxaca, you assume that it was a cartel abduction.
But this woman. . .
She has a mask to hide her identity. She doesn’t seem to wear a badge. It seems to establish a direct verbal and visual contact with Öztürk shortly before the student was led.
For which agency does this woman work?
Was this kind of law application measures a new experience for it? Öztürk did not commit any crime and was legally in the country until the Secretary of State personally revoked his visa, but he did it without informing Öztü. She had no way of knowing that her legal status had changed. The government made a change to target it, without its knowledge, then arrested it.
Is this the kind of work for which this agent has registered?
Does she think it is appropriate for the government to create conditions to change the legal status of an individual without informing them? Does she think it is morally acceptable to dock a person respectful of the laws in the street? Does she think Öztü had to be handcuffed?
To be a woman who walks in the streets alone is to be vulnerable. Has this agent had a problem to be part of a group of men who set an ambush to a young woman walking alone in the streets?
Would she agree to participate again in such an application action?
The police officers cannot choose the cases assigned to them. But they can choose where they work.
Did this woman go to work the next day? Is it still used by the agency she worked on March 25?
The economy can slow down, but unemployment is still low. There are a lot of jobs there. Many choices that people can make. . .
