Hopes And Handcuffs

December 14, 2006 (1 min read)

"A group of students at Yale Law School is expected to file suit today in federal court in a bid to find out how Homeland Security put together its sting on Sept. 19. The students want to know what role Danbury played in the operation and if the policies guiding the department's Immigration and Customs Enforcement arm may be unconstitutional. Their inquiry began with a request under the federal Freedom of Information Act. 'We asked nicely,' said Simon Moshenberg, a second-year student from Washington, D.C. 'They didn't answer. We sued.' The lawsuit is an attempt to shine light on Homeland Security's secretive post-9/11 strategies." Hartford Courant, Dec. 14, 2006.
