The federal officer who arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka outside an immigration detention center in May suggested that he was following the direction of the DOJ's No. 2 official, Todd Blanche, according to bodycam footage.
‘We are arresting the mayor right now, per the deputy attorney general’
An account of bodycam footage, submitted in a recent court filling, provides new detail about a confrontation outside a New Jersey immigration facility.
