So they wouldn’t let ICE inside their house to search for the grandmother, correct?

And then days later, ICE suddenly decides that the mom and granddaughter have “gang ties”, correct?

Riiiiiiiiight. Having “gang ties” is now the equivalent of cops planting a crack pipe on you.

The government said that Berrios’ apprehension was driven in part because she is an associate of the violent gang MS-13, which has Salvadoran roots.

According to the current regime and their brownshirts, everyone with either Latin family or with a Latin name is associated with a violent gang, and they don't bother to demonstrate it in court.

This is exactly the hell we've been trying to prevent for fifty years, and failed.
