A Minneapolis woman is accusing ICE agents of leading her to her own front door — in what she believes was deliberate retaliation for filming their operations. Her declaration was filed today as part of Tincher v. Noem, a federal civil rights lawsuit challenging ICE operations in Minnesota. On January 16, 2026, Rachel Landsem was driving through North Minneapolis when she spotted ICE agents detaining someone. She pulled over and began filming — a constitutionally protected activity. An agent immediately approached her, yelling in her face until she stopped recording and got back in her car. She drove to two more locations where ICE was active that morning, continuing to observe and document alongside other community members. At one location, an ICE agent photographed her face and her license plate. What happened next is what she says terrified her most. As she followed an ICE vehicle at a safe distance, it drove directly to her home — stopping in front of her house, circling the block, and stopping again before driving away. She believes agents used her plate photo to look up her address and then deliberately drove there to send a message: "we know where you live." "I felt threatened, frightened, and intimidated," she wrote in her declaration. She struggled to sleep, became hypervigilant, and the next day used her partner's car to avoid being recognized. Despite everything, Landsem says she intends to keep observing and recording ICE activity. ~~~ Case No. 25-cv-04669 | D.
