SANTA ANA, Calif. — The Editorial Board of the OC Reporter blog (not to be confused with the OCReporter website for public notices) published an editorial claiming that Mayor Valerie Amezcua is “cooperating with ICE” to deport Santaneros.
The editorial did not provide evidence and said “If confirmed”, spreading disinformation quickly via its headline.
The Santanero did not find any evidence on any other site either.
In a seperate post, shared by a resident in the ‘Neighbors of Santa Ana’ Facebook page, says Amezcua confirmed that there has been “no ICE raids to date,’ but did not specify a date.
The editorial claims that “recent information” came about, but did not elaborate on it.
The City of Santa Ana has now posted on its website a ‘Know Your Rights’ tab, similar information that is written on a ‘red card’.
