A federal judge has rebuked the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for its deportation officers' practice of approaching illegal immigrants at their homes, ruling that the 'knock and talk' approach violates the Constitution. Judge Otis D. Wright II stated that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in the Los Angeles area were using 'knock and talks' as a pretext for arresting targets, which runs afoul of the Fourth Amendment. The judge emphasized that while 'knock and talks' are considered constitutional by the United States Supreme Court, the manner in which ICE executed them was not. The judge suggested that the more accurate term for these operations would be 'knock and arrests.' Stephen Dinan reported on the case.

“While ‘knock and talks’ — as defined by the United States Supreme Court — are considered constitutional, ‘knock and talks’ — as defined and executed by [ICE] — are not,” the judge wrote. https://t.co/Lsed8M6OCt
