“This was not an immigration surgery in which agents went to the premises, summarized people and put them in buses,” said Steven Schrank, the leadership of Georgia for HSI. “This was a multimonth -criminal examination in which we developed evidence and carried out interviews, collected documents and presented this evidence to the court in order to receive an arrest warrant for judicial searches.”

Photos showed that workers were tied up and tied up with handcuffs before they were invited to buses. Cabinet told reporters that most prisoners were brought to an immigration center in Folkston, Georgia, near the Florida State line.

On Monday, September 8, the immigration lawyer of Atlanta, Charles Kuck, who represents four of the imprisoned South Korean workers, shared the associated press that many of the arrested persons legally worked and planned to be in the USA as part of the B-1 program for business visitor visa program.

“The vast majority of the people who were imprisoned by the US immigration and the customs authority in South Koreans were either involved as engineers there or in the after-sales service and installation,” said Kuck.

This type of system was common in the past, said Rosemary Coates, Executive Director of the Reshoring Institute, a non -profit organization that promotes US production.

“We saw the same thing in the 1980s with Japanese car manufacturers who made us factories and in the 1990s with German car manufacturers,” she said.

On Sunday, the South Korean government announced its intention to charter an airplane to fly more than 300 of the prisoners.

“We are deeply concerned and feel a strong sense of responsibility towards the arrests of our nationals,” said South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Hyun, according to Yonhap News Agency. He added that he was considering traveling to the United States to meet Trump officials about the incident.

The attack came shortly before a judgment by the Supreme Court of Trump supported Trump's head of the Council of California to continue to enable “wandering patrols” from ice agents. In a 6: 3 position, the court raised the assessment of a lower court that the stops violated the fourth change.

The case was triggered by several incidents in which the drivers were stopped by heavily armed ice agents, allegedly only because they were apparently Latino.

In his corresponding opinion, Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote: “In order to be clear, ethnicity alone cannot have a reasonable suspicion. According to the case law, this court in relation to immigration stops can be a” relevant factor “if they are taken into account together with other outstanding factors.”

“It is important,” he added, “reasonable suspicion only means that immigration officers can stop the individual briefly and inquire about the immigration status.”
