Attorneys allege that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) misled a judge to access the homes of Columbia University students involved in pro-Palestinian activism. A recently unsealed search warrant application indicated ICE falsely claimed to be investigating the university for harboring aliens. In reality, ICE sought to arrest two specific students, Yunseo Chung and Ranjani Srinivasan, including one with a green card, using the warrant as a pretext. This deception raises concerns about ICE's tactics in pursuing individuals based on their political activism rather than just immigration status.
ICE's true motive was to enter the students' homes under the guise of a university investigation, using a manufactured allegation of harboring aliens to gain access.
The search warrant application misled the judge, claiming ICE needed access to gather evidence against Columbia University rather than to simply arrest specific student activists.
