The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refuted a Newsweek article alleging ICE agents mocked Nicole Alvarez, wife of detained Peruvian immigrant Roberto Diego Alvarez Oliva, during his arrest.
DHS stated the arrest on May 19, 2025, in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, was lawful, following a final removal order, and that Alvarez’s wife was not present, contradicting her claims.
The agency emphasized officers’ professionalism, even offering to deliver the family’s car keys.
Fact-checking reveals Newsweek’s report lacks evidence, relying solely on Alvarez’s unverified account.
No independent witnesses or footage support the mocking allegation.
