Grandfather Speaks Out on ICE Detaining Him in His Underwear at Home; Officials Claim They Were Hunting 2 Sex Predators

A U.S. citizen and grandfather is speaking out after he was removed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from his St. Paul, Minn., home in his underwear in subfreezing conditions — though federal authorities maintain they were seeking two other criminal suspects at the property. On Sunday, Jan. 18, ICE agents detained ChongLy “Scott” Thao, who immigrated from Laos and who has been a U.S. citizen for decades, according to the Associated Press. Footage of the encounter quickly went viral.
