Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it "determined the individual in question was not the target."

Masked immigration authorities were recorded on video this week following a woman back to her Louisiana home during what the Department of Homeland Security is calling a “targeted immigration enforcement operation.”

Jacelynn Guzman, 23, was walking home Thursday from a corner store in Marrero, a New Orleans suburb, when a silver, unmarked SUV pulled up next to her and two masked agents exited, she said.

“I was walking and the first car pulled up on the side of me and I thought it was an Uber,” she said. “They said, ‘Wait don’t run, Ma’am.’ That’s all I heard before I blasted off,” Guzman told NBC News on Saturday.

Guzman said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

"Wait, don't run ma'am" is a really weird way of giving your credentials and reason for the stop.

[–] DaMummy@lemmy.world 70 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It has a very "I'm not a serial killer" introduction vibe.

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 43 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I mean, the mask kinda already gave off negative vibes. How is it even legal?

[–] RePsyche@lemmy.world 36 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s not. It can’t be. Officers of the Law must ID themselves as such. It’s basic law, and these creeps are pushing the limits, like fascists and bully’s do, to see wha the can get away with. Cowards, and Traitors the lot of them.

I don't think there is a federal law, just some state laws and you can complicate those by using federal officers. This is the best summary I've seen:

I bet if you just get a group of masked men in ICE getup to rob a Bank of America all the sudden the masks go away.

[–] dan1101@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

You can tell they knew from the beginning that it was shady and they would be hated.

[–] velindora@lemmy.cafe 7 points 1 week ago

I say shoot first.

A giant gang of traitors to their country and to humanity.

I can't think of a punishment too severe for them.

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 62 points 1 week ago (1 children)

She's lucky the assholes didn't shoot her for "disobeying an order".

I don't envy the PTSD she's going to have each time she leaves the house now. ICE needs to get fucked

[–] grue@lemmy.world 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're lucky she didn't shoot them for being jackbooted thugs indistinguishable from criminal kidnappers.

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

And what about being jackbooted assholes indistinguishable from criminal cartels?

[–] weariedfae@sh.itjust.works 38 points 1 week ago

If you watch the whole video one of the ICE kidnappers was hispanic. The step dad (?) of the girl calls him out. Wild.

Every single incident needs to be documented, recorded, reported, stored safely.

Me as a kid: "how could they let that happen?"

Me now: "... ah ..."

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thank God she was close to home already

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

They threatened him too. POS

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 24 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

These guys are absolutely fucking morons! Woman walking alone. Unmarked SUV pulls up next to her and masked men jump out. And they think she's not going to fucking run for her god damn life?

‘Wait don’t run, Ma’am.’

Oh, yes, that clears everything up. Kidnappers looking to take her to Epstein's Island for Matt Gaetz wouldn't ever say that. /s

Absolute fucking dipshits.

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right outside of NOLA too, they ain't waiting to see what the deal is. If it seems wrong, just get the fuck out of there and ask questions later. I wonder if these gestapo fucks are dumb enough to try this in the 9th Ward

[–] somewhiteguy@reddthat.com 3 points 1 week ago

I was wondering when they'd land down here, and I'm not sure Baton Rouge or New Orleans are good places to try these stunts. Perfect place to lose some of your guys or at least find out how many people have unregistered firearms. Oh, ya'll didn't check to see if these people are "Constitutional Carry" participants.... Seems like something you'd not want to try around these parts.
