Photographer Threatens Legal Action Over Use of Viral Image

The photographer of a widely shared image of Liam Conejo Ramos, a child detained by federal immigration agents, has threatened legal action against a super PAC supporting Democratic Senate candidate Angie Craig. The photograph, captured by Ali Daniels, features five-year-old Liam wearing a Spider-Man backpack and a blue knit hat with bunny ears. The image was taken while Liam and his father were detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, earlier this year.

This photograph gained significant attention, highlighting the ongoing debates around immigration enforcement in the United States. People have been protesting against these actions, as seen during a march toward the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas, where Liam was previously held.
