'He wasn't in ICE custody': Homan washes hands of immigrant chased to his death

During an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union," Donald Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan took no responsibility for the death of an immigrant who was being pursued by ICE agents this past week.

Near the end of a long interview with Homan, CNN host Dana Bash brought up the death of Jaime Alanis Garcia who was a victim in the raid at Glass House Farms in Camarillo, California and plunged 30 feet off of a building incurring injuries that led to his death.

"What's your reaction to that? Somebody losing their life, running from ICE," the CNN host prompted her guest.

"It's sad, it's unfortunate, he wasn't in ICE custody and ICE did not have hands on this person," he replied. "But it's always unfortunate when there's deaths."

"I mean, no one wants to see people die and, you know, it's– they were doing the job they were serving criminal arrest warrants," he continued. "I mean, the criminal search warrants. And I see the media saying, well, it was an ICE raid. No, they were serving criminal search warrants as part of a criminal investigation involved with child trafficking, child labor. I think it was total of 11 children that were found in that farm, and now they're being interviewed, for interviews, to find out, you know, are they victims of trafficking? If so, who is the subject of that trafficking and let's hold some people accountable. So it's unfortunate when anybody dies."
