In short:
Landers, seeing that immigrants were called to hearings, learning the cases against them were
dismissed, were then apprehended by ICE agents on the way out the door, ready to deport them without due process.
As many churches encourage volunteers to do, Landers would accompany frightened immigrants, walking out arm and arm with them to protect them.
ICE noticed his presence and decided they would show them what happens to American citizens who prevent unconstitutional deportations from occurring.
Fortunately, Gov. Kathy Hochul got the charges dropped.
