DHS condemns officer's aggressive behavior towards woman at NYC immigration court, officer relieved of duties.

“You can’t watch that video and think that that’s how you want United States law enforcement officials treating human beings,” said New York City Comptroller Brad Lander.

The Department of Homeland Security said the officer's behaviour was "unacceptable" and placed him on leave.

Rep. Dan Goldman, D-New York, a former federal prosecutor, said he has referred the federal immigration agent for felony prosecution.
