ICE Agents’ Actions Spark
Outrage at New York Immigration
Courthouse. On September 25, 2025, a distressing scene unfolded at 26 Federal Plaza in New York City, where an ICE agent was caught on video shoving a woman to the ground after masked agents detained her husband, an Ecuadorian asylum seeker, during a routine hearing.
This incident, part of a broader surge in ICE activities under the Trump administration, has ignited widespread condemnation from public officials and citizens alike. The woman’s plea for information about her husband, a U.S. citizen and mother of their young daughter, was met with force, highlighting concerns over the escalation of immigration enforcement tactics.
This event underscores the tense atmosphere at immigration courthouses, once considered safe spaces, now sites of potential arrest and violence.
As debates over immigration policy intensify, calls for accountability and reform grow louder.
