Travis County: ICE arrests another suspect at the courthouse
ICE arrests another suspect at the courthouse
6:33 PM. CDT March 24, 2017
Federal immigration officers have once again arrested a suspected criminal who was showing up for a court appearance, a tactic that has drawn criticism from some Travis County attorneys.
The office of the attorney for Alfredo Zelaya Portillo confirmed that ICE officers arrested Portillo outside of the Travis County Justice Complex Friday morning.
This is at least the second time ICE has arrested someone showing up to court.
Some attorneys have said the practice could lead to clients not showing up for their court appearances to avoid being arrested by immigration officials.
