On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston stated that an incident where there was a suspected gang member who ICE said assaulted ICE agents after he was released from Denver’s custody is the first time he knows of that there’s been a problem with how the city interacts with ICE when they have people in custody that ICE wants access to and “If there are procedures we can adjust to make it safer, we’re open to that. But this has been a procedure that’s worked for a long, long time. We’ve never had an issue until this week.”
After playing video of an exchange between Johnston and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) on the issue, host Erin Burnett asked, “I know you obviously would take issue or umbrage with the way that he presented it, but does he have a point? Does that situation of what happened in that case in Denver show something that must change?”
