LIVE: Dems Hold SURPRISE SHADOW HEARING on Trump ICE ABUSE

Annabelle Romero, a US citizen, and her three children (ages 6, 8, 14) were subjected to a violent ICE raid at a public horse race in Idaho. Agents, dressed in military-style gear, allegedly stormed the event, zip-tied adults, and pulled children from vehicles at gunpoint. Romero's 14-year-old daughter was thrown from a truck and later zip-tied, while her younger children were terrified. Agents reportedly threatened Romero and mocked her concern for her children.

Annabelle Romero's testimony detailing the events of October 19, 2025, at La Catal in Idaho, including agents threatening to 'blow her head off' and laughing about taking 'better care' of her children. Her daughter's zip-tied hands were shown as evidence.

Arnaldo Bazan, a 16-year-old US citizen, was allegedly assaulted by ICE agents while his father drove him to school. Agents in unmarked cars rammed their vehicle, then attacked his father. When Bazan intervened, an officer put him in a chokehold, calling him slurs like 'illegal idiot' and 'border hopper.' His phone, which contained video evidence of the incident, was confiscated and later sold by the agents for $250.

Superintendent Zena Stenvvic reported that ICE's 'Operation Metro Surge' in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, led to the detention of seven students, including 5-year-old Liam Kjo Ramos, with six sent to the Dilly Detention Center. ICE vehicles frequently patrolled school grounds, causing widespread fear, forcing students into virtual learning, and leading to observable trauma responses like separation anxiety, difficulty with transitions, and fear of strangers or uniforms among children.

Fernando Hernandez Garcia, an 18-year-old US citizen, described how his parents and five siblings, including his 10-year-old sister with a rare brain tumor, were deported at a Border Patrol checkpoint. They were en route to Texas Children's Hospital for specialized care, a trip they had made previously without issue. Despite presenting medical documentation, agents confiscated his sister's medicine and deported the family, leaving his sister without necessary treatment in Mexico, where her condition is worsening.

Andrea Mahia, a US citizen, and her 15-year-old son with speech and hearing disabilities were held at gunpoint and handcuffed by federal agents who mistakenly identified her son. Despite Mahia explaining his disabilities, agents did not alter their aggressive behavior. After realizing their error, agents offered no apology, instead telling her son he would have an 'exciting story to tell his friends,' causing him lasting fear and difficulty sleeping.

Andrea Mahia's testimony about the August 11 incident, her son's disabilities, the agents' lack of apology, and their dismissive comments. Representative Randall confirmed these details.

Anna Michelle Ramirez Sanan, an 18-year-old US citizen, recounted how ICE agents stopped her mother's car, slammed her mother to the ground, and restrained her 13-year-old autistic brother. Despite her pleas about her brother's autism, agents told her to 'shut up.' The incident, though brief, resulted in her mother needing paramedics and her brother developing severe anxiety, nightmares, and a reluctance to leave home or enter their car.
