Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell denied intentionally releasing the names of immigration agents, as alleged by Republican lawmakers and the Trump administration, which claimed the disclosure put agents' lives at risk.
At a Friday press conference, O'Connell explained that the names were unintentionally included in a report produced under an executive order requiring city employees to notify the mayor's office of all interactions with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
