ICE is keeping folks' jewelry, passports, valuables. What you need to know. - Parkrose Permaculture [View all]
Nov 8, 2025
________________________________________________
Angela includes an explanation from an immigration lawyer, Hadley Bajramovic @immigrationhadley. Ms. Bajramovic relates how it has been nearly impossible to recover some property seized by ICE after a detainee is released. That includes passports, keys, phones and valuable jewelry.
While the advice has been to keep your documentation readily at hand, Ms. Bajramovic advises people to "strip down" and not carry anything valuable ICE might take.
