Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents repeatedly target U.S.
citizens for deportation by mistake, making wrongful arrests based on
incomplete government records, bad data and lax investigations,
according to a Times review of federal lawsuits, internal ICE
documents and interviews.
Since 2012, ICE has released from its custody more than 1,480 people
after investigating their citizenship claims, according to agency
figures. And a Times review of Department of Justice records and
interviews with immigration attorneys uncovered hundreds of additional
cases in the countryâ??s immigration courts in which people were forced
to prove they are Americans and sometimes spent months or even years
in detention.
