“This felt like a kidnapping because it was: Officers in plainclothes — who refused to show us a warrant, speak with our attorney, or even tell us their names — forced my husband into an unmarked car and took him”
Didn’t know where he was for 38 hours https://t.co/PXjyK8LOio pic.twitter.com/rMUv54FwGR
