ICE Releases Mother and Three Children Jailed After Raid on New York Dairy Farm

HeadlineApr 08, 2025

In more immigration news, a mother and her three children have been released from a Texas detention center, nearly two weeks after they were taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in a raid at a dairy production facility near the town of Sackets Harbor, New York. The raid happened not far from the home of Trump’s so-called border czar Tom Homan, where advocates held protests demanding the family’s release. At the time of the raid, witnesses said a group of at least seven people, including the family, were handcuffed before being removed from a home at the dairy farm and put in a van. The three children were enrolled in public school, one of them in the third grade.
