Children zip-tied at San Antonio immigration court in new crackdow [View all]

At least three migrant children were taken into custody and restrained with zip ties at the San Antonio Immigration Court, located at 800 Dolorosa Street, on Thursday, May 29, according to multiple sources.

The incident was captured on video by an immigration attorney, who then shared the footage with attendees of an immigration law conference being held this week at the Grand Hyatt San Antonio Riverwalk Hotel by the Catholic Legal Immigration Network Inc., or CLINIC.

CLINIC is an immigration law advocacy group that “provides training and support” to more than 400 Catholic and community-based immigration legal aid organizations, according to their website.

It’s unclear if those agents, or the ones who took the children into custody on Thursday, work for ICE. Rivera said when CLINIC-affiliated officials asked the agents to identify themselves, they replied that “they were FBI.”
