"Broadview 6" Defendants Kat Abughazaleh & Michael Rabbitt on ICE Protest & Prosecutorial Misconduct

Watch Part 2 of our conversation with Kat Abughazaleh and Michael Rabbitt, two of the “Broadview 6” who were indicted for protesting last year outside the Broadview ICE jail during Trump’s so-called Operation Midway Blitz immigration crackdown. During a recent court hearing, the U.S. Attorney’s Office admitted federal prosecutors committed misconduct during the grand jury proceedings and, in a stunning move, the U.S. Attorney’s Office dismissed the charges against the remaining four defendants. Charges had already been dropped against two others.
