联邦法官批评边境巡逻队长在芝加哥使用武力

摘要

美国地区法官萨拉·埃利斯批评边境巡逻队长格雷戈里·博维诺未遵守限制在芝加哥移民行动中使用武力的法院命令。

美国地区法官萨拉·埃利斯谴责边境巡逻队长格雷戈里·博维诺未遵守限制在芝加哥移民执法中使用防暴武器的法院命令。法官的批评源于多起联邦特工对和平抗议者和旁观者使用催泪瓦斯及其他人群控制措施的事件。

在最近的一次庭审中,埃利斯法官提及了一起特工在老欧文公园儿童万圣节游行附近使用化学刺激物的事件。她强调,穿着服装前往游行的儿童并不构成对执法人员的威胁,并表示不应对他们使用防暴武器。

法官指出,她之前的命令禁止特工在没有即时威胁的情况下使用此类武器。她提到该命令可能不够明确、未被阅读或被特工故意忽视。埃利斯还指出,有报告称特工在小村庄地区将一名女子推倒并跪压她,作为过度使用武力的例子。

对此,博维诺队长承认了这些事件,但表示在对特工行为发表评论前需要更多信息。他还提到,虽然大多数特工配备了随身摄像头,但向每位特工分发摄像头存在困难。埃利斯法官坚持认为参与行动的每位特工都应配备随身摄像头,并指示博维诺在本周末前亲自获得一台。

法院的审查正值“中途闪电行动”移民执法计划在芝加哥进行之际。已有报告称,特工在移民逮捕期间或之后对居民使用催泪瓦斯及其他强制手段。国土安全部表示,特工在应对威胁或暴力攻击时使用了这些措施,但提供的证据有限。

埃利斯法官已命令博维诺队长每日报告行动中发生的任何事件,以确保遵守法院指令。
