An ICE agent who was filmed brutally slamming a woman to the ground in front of her children has been 'relieved' of his duties, according to an official.
Now-viral footage of the male officer showed him throwing her to the hard ground as he repeatedly told her 'adios'.
The woman was heard pleading with the plain-clothes official at the New York City customs and immigration offices after her husband was detained and whisked away by ICE agents just moments earlier.
Her young daughter cried as her mother was violently forced to the floor and witnesses rushed to surround her.
Now, days after the vicious moment took the internet by storm, it has been confirmed that the unnamed officer has been 'relieved' of his duties, Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at the Department of Homeland Security, told People.
'The officer’s conduct in this video is unacceptable and beneath the men and women of ICE,' McLaughlin added.
It is unclear if the agent is still employed with the agency or not. The Daily Mail reached out to McLaughlin for clarification.
Just before things got physical, the woman was heard pleading with the ICE agent in Spanish, saying: 'Please take me too,' CBS reported.
'They are going to kill him. They pulled my hair. You guys don't care about anything,' she added.
She reached for the officer's arm and in response he shoved her with both hands into the wall and slammed her onto the ground.

Nope, that’s the video I saw. It looks to me like she was trying to interpose herself between the arresting officers and her husband. The officer was pulling her hair, but I don’t see her attacking him. My evaluation (based on just this video, of course) is unchanged.
“she was trying to interpose herself between the arresting officers and her husband “
That’s called interfering with a LEO in the performance of his duties.
what we know from this video is that he was trying to evade arrest and she was really interfering with an arrest.
Both chargeable offenses.
Whether too much force was used is not something I can determine.
If that's the case she should have been arrested. She was not, just body-slammed and mocked. It was an inappropriate and unprofessional response by the LEO.
That was her husband, not her.
Whether too much force was used is not something I can determine.
From the short video we have, that's what it looks like. If we get additional video that shows otherwise, I'm ready to change my evaluation. Working with LE all my working life, I like to come down on the side of LEO's if they are clearly in the right. I've been on the scene of arrests where cops body slammed a suspect who clearly needed it. But I have no patience or allow no excuses for unprofessionalism.
As I answered another poster, if she was guilty of interfering in an arrest, she should have been arrested and charged, not body slammed to the ground and mocked.
Of course the little Trump haters at the mail would run a bs edited version of this.
NOT “karmalized”!
NOT “karmalized”!
Damn. Same ole,same ole. I thought with the Trump administration, these DEI hires would have our agents backs.
I watched the video. She FAFO’d.
Did he pull his gun and shoot her?
Was she many months pregnant?
Was she on crutches or in a wheelchair?
Three answers of “no” means it was a good body take down...
Misconduct?!
She was getting what she deserved.
Are you an illegal alien supporter?
Tiny violin playing. wwwww, wwwww, wwwww......
MORE ICE PLEASE!!!!
What that woman got, is a “learning experience”. The same thing you get when you feel self-important. Adios Puta
They were all resisting arrest.
Now that is karma, lock the woman up for assault.
Nice try, Daily Fail.
Rounding up illegals is a messy business.
