Canadian Actress Recounts Her Terrifying Experience in ICE Custody

The Canadian actress who was shackled and detained for 12 days earlier this month by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration is speaking out about her traumatizing experience.

“It felt like we had all been kidnapped, thrown into some sort of sick psychological experiment meant to strip us of every ounce of strength and dignity,” she wrote in a new Medium article called “You’re Not a Criminal, But You’re Going to Jail: My ICE Detention Story as a Canadian Citizen.”

“I don’t know your case,” said one man. “Could be days. Could be weeks. But I’m telling you right now—you need to mentally prepare yourself for months.”

“Women were picked up off the street, from outside their workplaces, from their homes—one woman’s daughter was outside the detention center protesting for her release.”

“They don’t lobby for stricter immigration policies in the name of national security—they do it to protect their bottom line," she said.
