The House Judiciary Committee convened on Thursday to deliberate on the topic titled “The Human Toll of Sanctuary Policies: Stories from Victims and Families.”
The hearing featured four witnesses. Among them, the Democratic witness was attorney Antonio Romanucci from the law firm Romanucci & Blandin LLC, which represents Renee Good’s family. Romanucci began by extending his sympathies to fellow witnesses, then characterized Ms. Good’s passing as “collateral damage” resulting from ICE’s actions of “rounding up black and brown people [and] terrorizing them.”
