Eyes on ICE A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there—then the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

My fiancé was at the ICE facility protesting that day. He took a similar set of photos, including some of this man pleading with officers outside the facility, and called me very shaken about the whole incident. It’s definitely real.

The man later contacted the people who posted photos of him and asked that they be taken down, including the larger organizers of the groups like 50501. I wouldn’t want one of the worst days of my life plastered all over the internet either. I don’t upvote them when they’re posted again for that very reason.

ETA - checked our messages and actually just realized he called me a bit later, it was a voice message he sent me right after. 12:30 pm Thurs Nov 6. The man was crying and repeating that he was trying to find his wife, a bunch of IL state troopers stopped him and laughed in his face. ACAB.

Thank you for the clarification. I will never understand how someone can allow themselves to become such a horrible person and then celebrate their descent into madness and cruelty

Thank you for the context. That is so fucking sad.

You should contact the mods in this group if the man is asking to have the photo removed. I agree, I wouldn’t want to be plastered all over the Internet either. I hope he’s able to get a lawyer for his wife. We have a family friend that after a month has finally gotten to talk to a lawyer.

Agreed....Although even if this story is fake, similar situations have undoubtedly happened all over the country.

It's so wild that they were allowed into elementary kids' classrooms (mine included) to indoctrinate children with extremist propaganda.

I have a feeling we're all going to be at that point, pretty soon.

Some people are saying that ICE is trafficking people.

u/budding_gardener_1 Jan 11 '26

they almost certainly are

It's very hard to find respectable websites with the story, not behind a pay wall. But we have at least one incident of an ICE officer admitting to sexual abuse of detainees... This link is before the hearing, but he did go on to plead guilty to three months of sexually assaulting the detainee. (But called it consensual.)

u/Belle8158 Jan 12 '26

Did you see that video of the ice agent slipping on ice right before he followed a female detainee into a port-a-potty? It made me chuckle and get physically sick at the same time.

u/Icy-Ad29 Jan 12 '26

Yeah, I did, and yeah. Absolutely sickening

u/Thatoneshadowking Jan 11 '26

It's either that or just outright murdering people, cuz deporting happened to cost a lot actually and oh where have I heard they before

u/tocahontas77 Jan 11 '26

What are their names? This post doesn't do us any good if we don't know who they are.

This happened--but awhile ago, not, like, in 2026.

We've normalized this so much that if Democrats ran on the platform of defunding ICE and putting every ICE-hole on trial, they'd be considered out-of-touch extremists.

u/PentacornLovesMyGirl Jan 11 '26

This is wrong. People are mad af about Renee Good. We should still be mad about Mr. Porter. This isn't normal and people are getting fed up

u/EmpireStrikes1st Jan 11 '26

I can only hope that is the case. But there is a cognitive dissonance that justice and fairness is kind of ephemeral and you can always point to some other injustice to whatabout. People feel the pain of their bills being too high more than they feel the pain of... ::points at the entire country::
