Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley Statement on ICE Arrests at Courthouse
MILWAUKEE – Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley issued the following statement in response to reports of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers making arrests in the Milwaukee County Courthouse:
“The Milwaukee County Courthouse stands as a cornerstone of justice where residents come to seek information, resources, and fair participation in the legal process. An attack on this safe, community-serving space undermines public trust, breeds fear among citizens and staff, and disrupts the due process essential to our courts. As local leaders, we have a duty to protect these institutions, uphold accessible services, and safeguard every individual’s constitutional right to engage fully in the judicial process. The last thing we want is to interfere with the legal process or sow doubt in those summoned to the courthouse about whether or not they will receive fair, impartial justice. I will continue working with our partners across the county and state to maintain safety and justice for all.”
