Member | Sat Mar 08 07:27:01 ‘Just following Hispanic people': Citizen detained by ICE questions vote for Trump Manassas man says he was pulled over on his way to work by agents looking for another man A naturalized Hispanic man says he was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who were looking for another person on a deportation order, and now the man is questioning his vote for President Donald Trump. Jensy Machado said he is a U.S. citizen and provided News4 documentation of his legal status. Machado said he was driving to work Wednesday with two other men when he was stopped by ICE agents on Lomond Drive in Manassas, a short distance from his home. He said he was confused by what was happening, why agents surrounded the pickup truck. “And they just got out of the car with the guns in their hands and say, turn off the car, give me the keys, open the window, you know,” Machado told Telemundo 44’s Rosbelis Quinoñez, who first reported his story. “Everything was really fast.” He said the agents said the name of a man they were seeking for a deportation order, someone who had given Machado’s home address. Machado told them that wasn’t his name — he didn’t know anyone by that name — and offered to show them his real ID compliant Virginia driver’s license. “They didn’t ask me for any ID,” Machado said. “I was telling the officer, if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving. After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me. And then he went to me and said how did I get into this country and if I was waiting for a court date or if I have any case. And I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’” Machado said he was uncuffed and immediately released after showing his driver’s license. The two men with him were taken into custody. He does not know why. Machado said the experience shook his faith in the immigration enforcement efforts of Trump, for whom he voted. “Because, like I said, I was a Trump supporter,” he said. “I voted for Trump last election, but, because I thought it was going to be the things, you know, like, … just go against criminals, not every Hispanic looking, like, that they will assume that we are all illegals.” “That’s what they’re doing, now,” Machado said. “They’re just following Hispanic people.” Immigration lawyers advise residents and citizens to always keep ID with them. News4 and Telemundo 44 have both contacted ICE for comment and are awaiting a response. http://www...stions-vote-for-trump/3861172/ |
