Lee Stinton is a 45-year-old Northern Irish hairdresser. He once lived in the US as a legal resident with a work permit. The Social Security Administration had checked his bona fides and given him a Social Security number. He paid his taxes. And he had a spotless legal record both in the US and back home.
Regardless, on June 8, ICE "kidnapped" him off a Florida street and detained him for a month in barbarous conditions. Because, as the immigration enforcer explained to Stinton, "You look Mexican."
