In Idaho, a large-scale raid by the FBI caused a stir and strong criticism. Last Sunday, about 200 local, state and federal officials raided a suspected illegal horse racing track in Wilder. The action, carried out using military means, led to widespread discussion about the appropriateness of such tactics.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Idaho organized a press conference to highlight the events. According to the reports, everyone present, including children, was arrested and tied with cable ties. Jeanette Orozco, who was at the scene, described people being packed onto buses while counter-demonstrators played speeches from Donald Trump.
The FBI explanation of the raid was brief. Four people were arrested and charged, but details of how the raid was carried out were lacking. The FBI’s planned press conference was canceled at short notice, which further fueled speculation about the background to the action.
Leo Morales, executive director of the ACLU of Idaho, sharply criticized the move. He stressed that such military tactics were unacceptable and could have traumatic consequences for the families affected, especially children. Attorney Nikki Ramirez-Smith also expressed concern about the psychological impact on the children who witnessed the raid.
The raid raises questions about the role of the various agencies involved. While the FBI bore primary responsibility, units from ICE and other federal agencies were also involved. The exact coordination and the decision on the tactics used remain unclear, which further increases criticism of the action.
The FBI criminal complaint details the illegal gambling investigation, which stems from a tip in February. Ivan Tellez, who allegedly owns the site and led the operation, is described as a legal permanent resident of the United States. The ACLU is now calling for a full investigation into the events and a review of the methods used.
