Melting ICE: Legal Accountability in the Wake of Minneapolis
Join the American Constitution Society, International Refugee Assistance Project, Latin Law Students Association, and National Lawyers Guild for a teach-in exploring the legal avenues for holding federal officers accountable for illegal acts. Following the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal immigration agents and the several other abuses by federal agents across the United States, there has been widespread discussion surrounding holding the involved agents responsible. Professor Elizabeth Beske, Professor Thomas Bondy, and Professor Mary Mason will discuss qualified immunity, Bivens, the Federal Torts Claim Act, and more.
