DHS releases new evidence in case of Dem staffer accused of impersonating ICE attorney

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released additional evidence it says confirms that a staffer for Rep. Veronica Escobar, D-Texas, lied about being an attorney for detainees at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) center in an effort to meet with them and sneak in smuggled cell phones.
In March, acting ICE Director Todd Lyons informed Escobar in a letter about Benito Torres, a senior caseworker on the congresswoman’s staff, who Lyons said lied about being a lawyer for detainees in ICE custody at the Camp East Montana center at Fort Bliss in El Paso.
Lyons requested that Escobar answer several questions about Torres’ alleged actions.
«Rep. Escobar refused to respond honestly. Instead, she took to X to defend Torres and gaslight the public,» DHS said Thursday.

Initially, DHS released an image of a sign-in log showing Torres allegedly claiming to be a «lawyer» visiting a «client.» ICE records show he first misrepresented himself as a legal professional in September 2025, Lyons said.
A Feb. 18 memo states that, on a Jan. 23 visit to the center, Torres falsely claimed to be an attorney while requesting to see 22 detainees. It was determined that he was not a legal professional, the memo said.
The most recent incident allegedly happened Jan. 30.

«Torres lied about being an attorney in order to gain access to an ICE detention facility,» a DHS statement said. «He misrepresented himself repeatedly over the course of several months, talking directly to detainees even though he was NOT their legal counsel. He even passed a phone around multiple detainees during a January 2026 visit, a dangerous violation of security protocols.
«Actions like Mr. Torres’ are meant to undermine ICE’s statutory mission to enforce immigration laws and remove illegal aliens from the interior.»
Fox News Digital has reached out to DHS and Escobar’s office.

At the time of the initial allegations by DHS, Escobar described Torres as «a dedicated public servant» and «Army veteran,» saying the accusations against him were «unfounded.»
She also criticized the facility and accused the Trump administration of retaliatory tactics.
«It is worth noting that ICE has refused to respond to multiple letters I’ve sent about Camp East Montana regarding deaths, including a homicide; outbreaks of diseases including COVID-19, measles, and tuberculosis; waste, fraud, and abuse; a lack of legal representation or medical care; and so much more,» she said.
«This administration has a history of engaging in intimidation tactics against Members of Congress as well as continuously attempting to obstruct our ability to provide oversight.

«I stand proudly by the members of my team who have demonstrated nothing but dedication and integrity to serving our nation and our community,» Escobar added.
The congresswoman has previously demanded the Camp East Montana center be shut down, describing it as «disastrous and inhumane.»

«The United States already has the largest immigration detention network in the world, and these added facilities serve only as tools for the administration’s inhumanity,» she wrote in a March post on X.
Torres has been banned from ICE sites.

“Queremos que termine la guerra, pero también el régimen”: la voz de civiles iraníes en pleno conflicto

El relato de familias iraníes obligadas a abandonar sus casas tras repetidas ofensias revela el efecto devastador de la guerra en Irán sobre la vida cotidiana en el país. La rutina se convirtió en una sucesión de decisiones difíciles y miedos compartidos.
A pesar de la situación, algunos ciudadanos intentan mantener su vida cotidiana antes del inicio del conflicto. Las cafeterías, parques y espacios al aire libre siguen recibiendo visitantes, como una forma de resistir y buscar normalidad. El deseo de preservar fragmentos de la vida anterior se mezcla con la resignación y el hastío.
Los sectores afines al régimen defienden la continuidad del conflicto y califican la guerra como “santa” y asisten a actos públicos y funerales de funcionarios caídos, incluso bajo el sonido de los bombardeos o durante tormentas. Además, buscan reunirse en plazas y corear consignas para reafirmar su postura.
Las redes sociales también documentan la vigilancia nocturna de los barrios, donde se observa a hombres progubernamentales —junto a integrantes de la milicia Basij e incluso adolescentes— recorriendo las calles en motocicletas y camionetas, según informó Irán International.
La división de opiniones se acentúa entre quienes consideran que los ataques podrían precipitar el fin del sistema actual y quienes solo desean el cese de la violencia. Un usuario describió el clima en su familia: la inquietud aumenta cuando los bombardeos disminuyen, por temor a que la guerra acabe sin cambios y las autoridades del régimen se mantengan en el poder.
Elham compartió vía redes el sentir de una conocida: “Cuando no hay ataques, me estresa que sigamos aquí y que estos salvajes sigan en el poder”. El dilema se resume en una confesión: “Cuando hay huelgas, tengo tanto miedo que solo puedo llorar y desear que terminen pronto. Ya ni siquiera sé qué quiero. Solo quiero que se vayan, y que la guerra también. Esta no es una vida que nadie merezca. No queríamos nada más que una vida normal”.
En varias zonas urbanas, la inseguridad empujó a miles a desplazarse hacia áreas rurales en busca de algo de calma. Quienes permanecen en sus viviendas, como Golshan en Teherán, describen noches de vigilia y ansiedad. “La noche ya no es un momento para dormir, sino un campo de espera”, escribió X, al relatar la tensión de anticipar el próximo estruendo.
La población civil en Irán enfrenta un panorama de miedo y adaptación permanente. Sin sistemas de alerta efectivos, la sensación de vulnerabilidad es continua. El impacto psicológico afecta a niños, ancianos y adultos por igual, mientras el acceso a servicios médicos se complica para quienes huyen de las áreas más golpeadas.
Golshan confesó que dejó de usar el ascensor en su edificio, temiendo quedar atrapada durante un corte de energía. “Evito el ascensor por miedo a los apagones”, explicó.
Otras voces, como la de Marzieh, relatan cómo la tensión impregna incluso las tareas básicas. “Para muchos, ducharse se ha convertido en una fuente de ansiedad”, escribió, aludiendo al temor de quedar expuestos o sufrir cortes de agua o electricidad en pleno ataque. “Cada momento de sus vidas está lleno de miedo y preocupación”, agregó en su publicación.
El relato de Golnaz, difundido por el Comité Internacional de la Cruz Roja en redes sociales, ilustra las consecuencias materiales y emocionales de los bombardeos. Tras un ataque que destruyó parte de su vivienda y cortó la luz, reconoció: “Después de eso, nuestra casa dejó de ser un lugar seguro”. La familia buscó refugio con parientes, pero los niños siguen alterados. “Estoy pensando en llevarlos a algún lugar alejado del ruido de la guerra para que se recuperen del trauma”, explicó la madre.
La vida en Irán, bajo el asedio de los ataques, quedó atrapada entre la resistencia diaria, la polarización política y el anhelo de una existencia común, lejos de la guerra.
