DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin is defending a recent ICE enforcement encounter in New York City, saying the individual involved was a repeat offender who should have been turned over to federal authorities. In an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Mullin said the man had been in the country for only three years, had "this long of a rap sheet," and had been released multiple times by New York State while on probation. According to DHS, the individual had prior arrests on weapons charges, alleged gang ties, and had fled from officers once before. Mullin said ICE had placed detainers on him and asked New York to transfer custody.
The case has drawn sharp reactions from New York Democrats. A Democratic congressional nominee backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani told CNN that deporting someone after the criminal courts have handled their case amounts to "double jeopardy," and later told supporters she plans to work to abolish ICE in Congress. Governor Kathy Hochul has said federal agents should focus on criminals, while DHS argues that New York's sanctuary policies keep releasing those individuals back onto the streets. Mullin said the FBI and HSI are investigating the encounter and that ICE body camera footage will be released once the investigation is complete.
In this video, we break down Mullin's response on CNN, the claims DHS is making about the individual's record, the "double jeopardy" argument from the Democratic nominee, the fight over New York's sanctuary policies, and what could come next for ICE operations in New York.
