A former lawyer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement who helped train new agents said the agency’s training academy is deficient and broken.
Ryan Schwank became a whistleblower after he resigned earlier this month. He then went public during a forum held by congressional Democrats on Feb. 23.
In his first interview with local news in Minnesota, Schwank tells Minnesota Now host Nina Moini that he was concerned about policies from day one, when he was shown a memo that instructs ICE officers to enter a home without a judicial warrant.
Schwank said the trainees themselves recognized they were not fully trained and some would come to him saying they didn’t feel ready. Instructors would also tell Schwank in confidence their concerns that training was insufficient. Those conversations, Schwank said, illustrated a “culture of fear” inside the academy.
