U.S. citizen in Arizona detained by immigration officials for 10 days

[essentialsaltes]

Court documents say a Border Patrol agent arrested Hermosillo “at or near Nogales, Arizona, without proper immigration documents” and that Hermosillo admitted to illegally entering the U.S.

Hermosillo and his girlfriend, who have a 9-month-old child together, live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and are visiting family in Tucson. He says he has never been to Nogales.

The family later provided officials with his birth certificate and social security card.

A magistrate judge in Tucson dismissed his case on Thursday, and family says he was released much later that night.

Ten days is a long time. Long enough to get fired and lose custody of kids.

I would think he should be able to sue.

Yeah, too bad Timothy McVeigh wasn't stopped and his truck illegally searched.....then we would have missed out on the OKC bombing and he would have got off on an illegal search violation.....oh well......

Why would the border patrol have searched McVeigh's rental truck in the middle of Oklahoma, he wasn't hispanic.

I hope they investigate. If he was never near Nogales, the border patrolman should be fired and if possible criminal charges for filing a false report? Phone location and a timeline should not be hard to show either way. I imagine the government will not be looking though his lawyers sure can.

If we illegally arrest everyone, all crime will be stopped.

Attitudes like that are how you people allowed John Wilkes Booth to prevent the Secret Service from disabling Skynet thus resulting in the death of President Harrison.

In the best Morgan Freeman voice: "He did not, in fact, come back."
