ICE’s use of full-body restraints during #deportations raises concerns over #inhumane treatmentThe Nigerian man described being roused with other detainees in September in the middle of the night. #ICE officers clasped shackles on their hands & feet, he said, & told them they were being sent to Ghana, even though none of them was from there.#Trump #law #immigration #Rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction #HumanRights #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #PoliceBrutality #WhiteSupremacy https://apnews.com/article/immigration-deportations-trump-administration-civil-rights-84309f534c601befa6e9faeae78bcff5

When they asked to speak to their #attorney, he said, the officers refused & straitjacketed the already-shackled men in full-body restraint suits called the WRAP, then loaded them onto a plane for the 16-hour-flight to West Africa.Referred to as “the burrito” or “the bag,” the WRAP has become a harrowing part of #deportations for some #immigrants.#Trump #law #immigration #Rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction #CivilRights #HumanRights #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #PoliceBrutality #WhiteSupremacy

“It was just like a #kidnapping,” the Nigerian man, who’s part of a federal lawsuit, told The AP in an interview from the detainment camp in which he & other deportees were being held in Ghana. Like others placed in the restraints interviewed by the AP, he spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.#Trump #law #immigration #Rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction #HumanRights #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #PoliceBrutality

The AP identified multiple examples of #ICE using the black-&-yellow full-body restraint device, the WRAP, in #deportations. Its use was described to the AP by 5 people who said they were restrained in the device, sometimes for hours, on ICE deportation flights dating to 2020. And witnesses & family members in 4 countries told the AP about its use on at least 7 other people this year.#Trump #law #immigration #Rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction #HumanRights #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #PoliceBrutality

The AP found #ICE has used the device despite internal concerns voiced in a 2023 report by the #CivilRights division of its parent agency, the #DHS, in part due to reports of #deaths involving use of the WRAP by local law enforcement. And the AP has identified a dozen #fatal cases in the last decade where local police or jailers around the #US used the WRAP & autopsies determined “restraint” played a role in the death.#Trump #law #immigration #HumanRights #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #PoliceBrutality
