A disabled American Citizen was detained for several days.
George Retes, 25, works as a security guard at Glass House Farms, where the raid took place Thursday. His sister and wife told our sister station, ABC7 Eyewitness News in Los Angeles, that he was trying to leave the area as tensions escalated between federal agents and protesters.
They say they saw AIR7 footage of the scene and were able to see his white vehicle.
“ICE thought he was probably part of the protest, but he wasn’t, he was trying to reverse his car,” said his sister, Destinee Majana. “They broke his window, they pepper-sprayed him, they grabbed him, threw him on the floor. They detained him.”
Retes’ sister and wife have been trying to call anybody she can to find out where he was taken, but they say nobody can tell them where he is.
The family spent days looking for him.
UPDATE
This was posted on Twitter by a Fox News guy at about 3:30 pm ET July 13th. I have not been able to find any corroboration for it.
The government is investigating to see what charges it can bring against him. My opinion is that, looking to cover their ass, I will assume they will come up with some trumped-up charge.
