ICE Under Watch: Chicago Judge Mandates Body Cameras

Chicago ICE agents are now required to wear body cameras after a federal judge was startled by footage of aggressive tactics used against protesters. This ruling follows increased ICE enforcement in Chicago, community groups monitoring ICE activity, and previous restrictions set by Judge Ellis on federal agents, including mandatory visible badges and bans on certain riot control methods. While the government cites potential logistical challenges, the judge has ordered a meeting to discuss implementation, adding to the growing trend of body camera use by federal agencies and pushing for greater transparency in immigration enforcement.
