A New York judge earlier this month recommended a landlord pay $17,000 in fines for threatening to call immigration authorities on an undocumented tenant.
This is the first case related to housing where threatening to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to harass or intimidate a tenant has been found to be a violation of law, according to a spokesperson for the New York City Commission on Human Rights.
Holly Ondaan, the tenant and an undocumented immigrant at the time the case was filed, testified in court that she became "an emotional wreck" when her former landlord, Dianna Lysius, threatened to call ICE and sent demeaning texts because she was unable to pay rent.

Next time...don’t threaten.
Goes the same for the GOP-e and Nike....”just do it”.
The landlord should be prosecuted for harboring an illegal alien.
Just when we think that hardworking, tax paying Americans are the backbone of this country, a judge decides that reporting illegal activity should be penalized in the amount of $17,000.
Why should anyone obey the Law??
Leftists want complete anarchy to destroy our beloved country. Im surprised the Statue of Liberty hasnt been shedding tears over the destruction.
You the crook NY judge who is against enforcing Federal law?
Yeah, and I'm enjoying it **smirk**
So if this is true - can we sue Beto for threatening to steal our guns?
Is that not the same type of blackmail as this judge has decided is criminal?
Note to American citizens: Do not threatened to call ICE on illegal aliens. Simply, call ICE.
No....this the judge referred to in the article at the top of this thread...John B. Spooner.
Federal court!
That looks like an interesting film...what’s it called?
Open Range
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0316356/
In Montana in 1882, "Boss" Spearman [Robert Duvall in another classic Western turn] is an open range cattleman, who, with hired hands Charley, Mose, and Button, is driving a herd cross country. Charley Postelwaite [Costner] is a former soldier who fought in the Civil War and feels guilty over his past as a killer.
Charley "gets over it" when confronted by a more ruthless hired gunthug and his thug rancher boss. As you can see in the clip, he uses the Nathan Bedford Forrest method.
The judge should be thrown in prison for pimping illegals on a collective scale
Live in Filth York at your own peril.
Can’t be a real judge. You’d get in trouble for shooting a real judge.
Don’t talk, just do. You don’t open yourself to craziness that way.
Hanging Judge. By a lamppost.
Yeah dont broadcast it.
“she became “an emotional wreck” when her former landlord, Dianna Lysius, threatened to call ICE”
Here comes the waaambulance to the rescue.
Open Range,
The Best Gun fight
On Film.
IMHO
Bingo, what it all boils down to is attempted extortion. Deliver the 3 day pay or quit notice and continue on eviction. Because you know what's going to happen, you'll get your money late, then the next month even later, etc. Just file the paperwork and move on.
I wouldn’t have given the illegal alien roach any warning, would have just called ICE and let them deal with her..so this dirt bag sneaks into our country illegally and now she is being rewarded by 17 grand in her pocket
