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.

    Eh, I don’t think they give a shit about the natives to be honest.

    Jews were only 1% of the pre-Nazi German population. Trans people are only 1% of the US population.

      Nazi germany very vocally targeted Jewish people. Current IS administration is not. We don’t need to make up targeted racism when general racism explains it and has significant evidence
