ICE training is famously brief. They are not trained in laws or legal structures. They are effectively federal local cops, if that makes sense (it probably doesn’t since you’re German, so let me try to explain it a different way)
In the United States many police departments prefer police officers without college education or strong critical thinking skills. ICE is one of them. ICE officer agents are selected for their tendency towards violence and a willingness to execute orders without fail or question. The goal is for them to simply not be able to incriminate themselves in a court of law by way of they simply didn’t know the law. The further goal is that when the right circumstances arrive they’ll just follow orders with a near mad sense of duty without any form of ethics getting in the way of stopping them.
To really drive home for you who ICE is, as a German. ICE is a bunch of Adolf Eichmanns all running around with big high capacity guns and zip ties
Moreover every time they do these hiring pushes they end up with handfuls of cartel members that just open gates to their friends, help with murder so on and so forth. They made it so much easier to get in now that they lowered hiring standards and reduced background checks.

Ignorance of the law is not a defense unless you are enforcing the law.
Classic rules for thee but not for me type shit
That’s exactly the impression i had.
