Over the past few months, data shows that half of all courthouse arrests made in the U.S. took place in New York City.
A controversial immigration enforcement strategy has prompted a lawsuit from New York City officials, backed by Mayor Eric Adams. The suit calls on the Trump administration to immediately end ICE arrests at courthouses.
"No one should be afraid to send their children to school, go to a hospital when sick, call 911 when in danger, or go to a court hearing when called upon to do so," Adams said.
According to recent data analysis from the city, over the past few months, half of all the courthouse arrests made by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the U.S. took place in New York City. They occurred in buildings like 26 Federal Plaza, where people show up to immigration court for mandatory hearings.
In response the city's lawsuit, Department of homeland Security defended courthouse arrests.
"Nothing in the constitution prohibits arresting a lawbreaker where you find them. The ability of law enforcement to make arrests of criminal illegal aliens in courthouses is common sense. It conserves valuable law enforcement resources because they already know where a target will be. It is also safer for our officers and the community. These illegal aliens have gone through security and been screened to not have any weapons," Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Scripps News in an emailed statement.
However, advocates argue that detaining respondents as they leave court undermines the legitimacy of the immigration process.
"People are showing up with their hearing notice. They're going to the court room that they've been told to go to. They're coming with the documents for their case or whatever the judge has required of them. And they look outside that waiting room and they...

We love to go from bad to worse in NY. Cuomo to Hochul, Adams to Commie mondami
“””No one should be afraid to send their children to school, go to a hospital when sick, call 911 when in danger, or go to a court hearing when called upon to do so,” Adams said. “
This maroon deserves to lose.
On the contrary. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Or, just go back to where you came from.
And lose he will, and be replaced by a bigger moron, it's the NY way.
I don’t know who Adams thinks he’s sucking up to with this that’ll make them change their vote to him from Mamdami the Commie. He’s burnt toast.
Mayor retardo can sue all he wants. Federal courthouses are not controlled by NYC.
Make up your mind, Adams. Whose side are you on, now?
No sitting on the fence for this one.
The reason why Eric Adams is getting no support now is plain to see.
All the Illegals would live at courthouses ,LOL
These are immigration courts. If you have a mandatory hearing in a criminal court you can't expect to be released when your hearing if over. I'm still trying to figure out what they are bitching about.
Yesterday a poll showed Adams with 8.8%.
He recently made anti-gun mentions in speeches on two occasions.
Now this anti-ICE one.
He is going to be lower in the polls by the next time one is taken.
((Sliwa 16.5% and Cuomo 23.4% to Mamdani’s nearly 42%.
“Gotham AARP Poll.”))
Yes.
They could say “I’m moving out of the church sanctuary and into the courthouse one. Better meals and more streaming TV services.”
It would suck to vote Cuomo but that seems to be the thing to do if you're living in NYC.
It looks like New Yorkers will finally resort to the longstanding mindfulness and New Age gurus’ advice to “just turn off the news. It only causes distress.”
Like the ostrich said before diving into the sand.
Pandering.
“...ICE arrests at courthouses.”
My daddy taught me to fish where the fish are. ICE knows how to catch fish.
“No one should be afraid to send their children to school, go to a hospital when sick, call 911 when in danger, or go to a court hearing when called upon to do so.”
Don’t be here illegally, and you won’t have to be afraid.
The left doesn’t get it that you cannot move yourself to any other country and stay without permission and send your children to school, use their hospitals and emergency and court services without consequences (your butt will get deported). No other country allows this. So why should we??
Reminds me of an earlier thread today about some kids who tried to steal a car and got shot. Car owner was sentenced to prison for life and the surviving thief complained that nobody should be shot for trying to steal a car.
Hey, just don't steal a car! And don't sneak into the USA for free schooling, medical assistance and 911 responders -- then you won't have to be afraid you'll be caught!
Panderng which will no good.what a flake.
