Note the reporter detained is with a Univision affiliate in Nashville according to the reports and yes this is splitting two ways is it because of "Immigration Violations" or exposing ICE for abuses in the state of Tennessee the issue here. We ran into similar issues with Don Lemon when he covered the ICE protests in Minnesota earlier in the year. Then we also have to run into the first amendment issues each time this happen.

Nearly two weeks after her release from immigration detention, Nashville journalist Estefany Rodríguez has filed a first-person account in federal court that further details allegations her arrest was in retaliation for her reporting on local immigration enforcement actions.

Rodríguez, a reporter for the Spanish-language media outlet Nashville Noticias, was arrested March 4 and had limited contact with her attorneys or her husband until her release on $10,000 bond March 19.

In a declaration filed Monday, Rodríguez expanded on her attorney’s allegations that her arrest was connected to her reporting on Immigration and Customs Enforcement activities in Middle Tennessee over the past several months.

“I’ve thought about the timing of my arrest,” Rodríguez’ declaration read. “I was the primary Nashville Noticias journalist reporting on ICE. Our reports got hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of likes and reposts on Facebook, Instagram, and other platforms. Although our reporting was objective, it brought to light ICE practices in our community.”
