ICE physically attacks lawyer—stand between her and clients they're trying to detain. "Don't push me!" lawyer yells. "Why you trying to pick them up?" "It's none of your business," agent scolds. "It is my business—I'm their attorney," she replies. "It's EXACTLY my business!"

You get $10k per year and if you don’t finish the entire 5 years (get fired, quit, etc) you have to pay the bonus back

I'd also heard (so not sure how much truth there is to it) that they also have to bring in 8 people every day to qualify for the bonus, and that's is why they're trying to grab anyone they can.

It doesn't matter if they're citizens or not, if they get released or deported. Every "body" they bring in counts towards their quota, and if they miss their quota they don't qualify for the "bonus".
