Footage also showed paramedics wheeling a person into a hospital shortly afterward, suggesting it was Tatiana Martínez herself.
Users on digital platforms commented that the influencer may have fainted from the shock.
This forced her transfer to a medical center.
So far, her health condition has not been confirmed, nor the exact location where she remains in custody after receiving hospital care.
Fear Among Other Creators
The arrest of Tatiana Martínez has raised concern among other influencers who produce content on migration and deportation policies in the United States.
Some of them expressed fear of becoming targets for authorities due to their public criticism of immigration operations promoted by the federal administration.
This episode comes amid an intensification of raids, which the government has presented as part of the largest deportation campaign in the country’s history.
For many digital activists, the case of Martínez could become an alarming precedent about the risks of publicly exposing ICE operations.
