A federal immigration officer has been removed from duty following an incident where he shoved an Ecuadorian woman to the floor outside a Manhattan immigration court. Video of the altercation, which occurred after the woman's husband was arrested, went viral. The Department of Homeland Security called the officer's conduct "unacceptable" and is conducting a full investigation into the matter. This rare rebuke highlights concerns over aggressive tactics used during immigration enforcement.
