Judicial Order Expands Surveillance Requirements

A federal judge has reportedly taken significant steps to increase oversight of immigration enforcement operations in the Chicago area, according to recent court proceedings. Judge Sara L. Ellis of the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Illinois stated during a hearing that she was “profoundly concerned” about potential violations of her previous order limiting tear gas use and requiring dispersal warnings. Sources indicate the judge has now expanded that order to require federal agents to wear body cameras during operations.
