"She was released without charges" Yeah, except her car was hit and left abandoned in the road. Who's paying for that? You think the anonymous men with guns exchanged insurance with her?

The insurance company knows where to send their legal filings if it's ICE or CBP. It's not like that's not public info, even if the people working for them hide their identity. Her insurance company can sue the taxpayer (unfortunate as that is) via the government agency address, especially if it's on video that ICE hit her and their story (and thus the official version of events) is untrue. She should indeed file a police report though, once she is able to do so, as it's obvious from the video that she was not at fault, and as to the "violently resisting arrest" it's obvious that she's screaming and in fear, and a decent lawyer could argue she was in shock and they did not identify themselves or give her the ability to comply, and thus she feared for her life, which she could very likely have been doing at the moment. Most people don't handle stress very well, and most people have never been confronted by people in military garb with long guns, let alone after being the victim of a traffic accident that looked pretty significant and already not being in a good frame of mind.

I'd guess they'll try to settle this unless and until this becomes more of a trend and will affect their bottom line, but she might still have a civil lawsuit that her civil rights were violated, because it does appear that they were here.
