Taxpayer Supported ICE data mining
The outlier cases include custom summonses that sought records from a youth soccer league in Texas; surveillance video from a major abortion provider in Illinois; student records from an elementary school in Georgia; health records from a major state university’s student health services; data from three boards of elections or election departments; and data from a Lutheran organization that provides refugees with humanitarian and housing support.
In at least two instances, agents at ICE used the custom summons to pressure news organizations to reveal information about their sources.
