The federal government is charging a Michigan nurse accused of illegally helping an undocumented immigrant who was being treated in a hospital escape from immigration officials, court records unsealed this week show.
An FBI agent’s declaration submitted in a federal court accuses Chloe Renae Freeman, 33, of “instigating or assisting escape”, a federal misdemeanor, by helping a patient leave an Ann Arbor hospital while in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody in May. The patient, an undocumented immigrant from Mexico, had been arrested about two hours earlier by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents.
