ICE agents face suit over alleged jail abuse of detainee Mochama
U S District Judge Kathryn Venti kept alive Mochama’s civil rights claim against two ICE agents over a January 2014 incident at a Butler County jail and Wichita ICE office. The judge dismissed other claims but allowed the excessive force complaint to proceed, citing an uncooperative detainee with a hand in his pockets as not justifying the force used. Mochama remains detained as deportation proceedings continue.
