A 14-year-old girl's account of being zip-tied during an ICE raid in Idaho has sparked fresh questions about the agency's tactics. The incident, which occurred at a community horse racing event, has raised concerns about the treatment of children and the use of militarized police force. The girl, SueHey, described how she and her siblings were herded into a confined area by law enforcement officers in military gear, and how she was zip-tied by her wrists. This incident has been overshadowed by the immigration surge in Minnesota, where federal agents have been accused of using tear gas and other aggressive tactics against children. However, the ACLU argues that the Idaho raid signals a concerning normalization of harsh and violent action by federal law enforcement in the presence of children. The administration has denied the use of zip ties, but the girl's account and other reports of mistreatment have raised serious questions about the agency's tactics and the impact on vulnerable populations.
