Officials react to allegations of civilians impersonating ICE

(The Center Square) – One San Diego County supervisor is concerned about civilians posing as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents using fake ICE clothing and tactical gear and sowing fear and discord.

Terra Lawson-Remer, chair of the Board of Supervisors, wrote in an Oct. 17 e-newsletter that she is leading efforts in the county to issue cease-and-desist letters to companies that sell fake law enforcement gear that allows members of the public to misrepresent themselves as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
