A Native American woman born in Phoenix was wrongly flagged for deportation at an Iowa jail after an ICE detainer mix-up, sparking outrage and calls for accountability.

The 24-year-old was born in Phoenix and is a member of Arizona’s Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. She was booked into the Polk County Jail in Des Moines, Iowa, where she currently lives, in September for allegedly driving with a suspended license. Jacobo was scheduled to be released on Nov. 11, but what should have been a routine process was complicated and delayed by an erroneously issued ICE detainer. She was ultimately allowed to leave just before 4:30 a.m. on Nov. 12.

    My understanding is that to claim sovcit you can’t ever have a license

    your first mistake is trying to understand. Do not understand, never stand under.

    Sovtard joke asides, it doesn’t actually matter to these single-braincelled organism. They just decide laws don’t apply to them. Some go even all the way to get their driving licenses revoked.

      Yeah, this is true of anyone making life changes based on the advice of youtubers. Most people are just trying to take control of thier life from all the constraints society and capitalism puts on them to extract as much gdp from them as possible. If thier lives were stable and fullfilling, they wouldn’t feel the need to listen to the youtubbers.
