U.S. Citizen Sues Federal Immigration Agency For Detaining Him For 36 Days
By Esther Yu-Hsi Lee


A 2011 Virginia Journal of Social Policy and the Law study conducted by Jacqueline Stevens, a professor of political science at Northwestern University, found that “recent data suggests that in 2010 well over 4,000 U.S. citizens were detained or deported as aliens, raising the total since 2003 to more than 20,000.” And the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University found that ICE agents placed detainers on 834 U.S. citizens between 2008 and 2012.
