Democrats condemn detention of distraught woman by federal agents

The detention by federal officers of a crying woman at the San Francisco International Airport on Sunday drew condemnation from local officials in California after the clips went viral.
One video posted by an NBC affiliate on Monday showed the woman in tears and screaming as officers held her down. Her daughter could be seen looking on and crying.
State Senator Scott Wiener, a Democrat, said the incident showed that such federal action brought “nothing but fear and chaos.”
San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie, also a Democrat, said what had happened was “upsetting.”
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, whose Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has overseen Republican President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, said on X the clips showed the arrest of people who were in the U.S. illegally.
“ICE officers arrested Angelina Lopez-Jimenez and Wendy Godinez-Lopez at the San Francisco International Airport,” the DHS said on X, adding the family had an outstanding final order of removal to Guatemala from 2019.
