AI Overview
Key details of the incident:
The lie: Schwab claimed he was asked to help craft a statement that some targets eluded ICE due to Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf's warning about upcoming raids, but later, Attorney General Jeff Sessions presented a different, "completely false" account that ICE failed to make 800 arrests because of the mayor.
The pressure: When Schwab asked for the discrepancy to be corrected, he was instructed to refer to his original statement without disputing Sessions' version, which he considered a "flat-out lie".
The outcome: Troubled by what he perceived as public deception, Schwab resigned, stating he could not be part of an organization that was comfortable lying to the American public.
Subsequent events: In a later interview with CBS News, which was interrupted by Homeland Security investigators visiting his home, Schwab stated he had never been asked to lie in his 17 years in government service prior to this incident.
No one's overview ......
"Schwab, noting that ICE arrested 232 of roughly
1,000 undocumented immigrants it set out to detain that day. “But what they publicly said was that [Schaaf] let people go. Not true.”

"Thanks to the dedicated and professional work of ICE deportation officers, we were able to remove many public safety threats from the streets of the Bay Area during the past few days. However, 864 criminal aliens and public safety threats remain at large in the community,
and I have to believe that some of them were able to elude us thanks to the mayor’s irresponsible decision. https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/ice-statement-immigration-enforcement-activities-northern-californiaSchwab: ICE set out to detain 1000 .....
Homan: I have to believe .......
One of the arrests: "Among those arrested was ICE fugitive Armando Nuñez-Salgado, 38, a citizen of Mexico and
documented Sureño gang member, who has been previously removed by ICE on four prior occasions."
Wednesday ....
Apparently the investigation has been going on since before the Schaaf warning about ICE.

Carlos Ramiro-Mendoza and Jeronimo “Orlando” Pablo-Carillo for their respective roles in the January 19, 2019, murder of a victim identified as “S.R.J.”; .........
A question for ex-agent Schwab. You stated that 1000 people were expected to be detained. Is it possible that the Mayor's warning prevented these people from being detained ?
If so, the murder victims may be alive today.
