I just... I just...
who are these fucking people?
The Trump administration recently promoted an immigration judge to the federal board that reviews immigration decisions even though he once reportedly threatened to unleash a very big dog on a 2-year-old Guatemalan boy.
I have a very big dog in my office, and if you dont be quiet, he will come out and bite you! North Carolina immigration judge V. Stuart Couch yelled at the migrant child during a March 2016 hearing, according to a new report by Mother Jones. Couch thought the boy was making too much noise and being disruptive, Kathryn Coiner-Collier, an independent observer who was in court that day, told Mother Jones.
Want me to go get the dog? If you dont stop talking, I will bring the dog out. Do you want him to bite you? Couch reportedly yelled as a Spanish-language interpreter translated. Couch became increasingly frustrated throughout the hearing, according to Coiner-Collier. But its possible the boy didnt fully understand his instructions since he primarily spoke the Mayan language Kiche.
Couch repeatedly turned off the courtrooms recorder throughout the course of the hearing when he threatened the boy, according to Coiner-Collier. Assistant Chief Immigration Judge Deepali Nadkarni also confirmed there were multiple breaks in the recording that day.
