ICE officers were looking for a \u201ccertain alien\u201d who was not the defendant who had been released from the county jail. They saw the defendant carry trash to the street receptacle and asked him if he\u2019d seen the man in the picture they were looking for. Defendant didn\u2019t speak English, so they asked in Spanish. He said that he hadn\u2019t seen him in a couple of days. Because of his tattoos in Spanish and about Mexico, the officers asked him whether he was here legally or illegally. He answered illegally. They asked if he\u2019d been deported before, and he said yes. They asked for a fingerprint scan which was done on a cell phone that immediately confirmed that from a government database. \u201cUnder the totality of the circumstances, the court concludes that a reasonable person in Mr. Hernandez’s position would have felt free to decline the officers’ request to talk and would have felt free to decline to answer questions or to end the encounter. The officers used no show of authority to suggest to defendant that his cooperation was required.\u201d United States v. Hernandez-Esquivel<\/a>, 2015 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 155977 (D.Kan.
