An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who shoved a woman into a wall and then pushed her to the ground at a New York City immigration courthouse has been “relieved of his current duties,” an ICE official said Friday, CNN reported. The incident, captured on video Thursday, has drawn widespread outrage as families across the United States continue to face enforcement actions after attending immigration court hearings. “The officer’s conduct in this video is unacceptable and beneath the men and women of ICE,” Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said. “Our ICE law enforcement are held to the highest professional standards and this officer is being relieved of current duties as we conduct a full investigation.” CNN has asked ICE to clarify
