In Minneapolis, the Tuesday before Alex Pretti’s murder, ICE agents detained a five-year-old and his father after coming home from pre-school. Agents then brought Liam Conejo Ramos, the boy, up to the door of his family’s home. Observers at the scene said the ICE agents tried to get Liam’s family members to come out—that agents were using Liam as bait.
Immigration activists and school officials in the area have observed ICE using deception in order to enter people’s homes. Another example was a seventeen-year-old high school student, who cracked the door open—ICE immediately pushed their way in and detained her.
Liam ended up at an immigration detention center outside of San Antonio with his father, an Ecuadorian who came to the U.S. and applied for asylum in 2024. He has no criminal record—nor does Liam.
Six students have been arrested from Liam’s school district, alongside 25 parents just out of Valley View Elementary School, where he is a student. Schools like Valley View in the area have reported that many immigrant students have not been attending, out of fear that they or their parents might be detained. Many students who do attend are upset by the thought that their peers languish in faraway jails for no reason. Teachers and school workers deal with the fallout.
Arresting small children in bunny hats—that has made it abundantly clear that the ICE campaign in Minneapolis has nothing to do with so-called “criminals,” or “safety.” That it is in fact a terror campaign, pure and simple.
