What we know about claim ICE detained New Zealand mom and son
According to a rumor that circulated online in August 2025, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested and detained Sarah Shaw, a woman from New Zealand residing in Washington state, along with her young son, despite both allegedly having legal visas. The arrest reportedly occurred on July 24, 2025, when the pair returned to the U.S. after dropping Shaw's older children off for a flight from Vancouver in Canada. ICE then allegedly transferred Shaw and her son to a detention center in Texas. According to reports, Shaw held both work authorization and an approved I-360 form allowing victims of domestic abuse at the hands of a U.S. citizen or lawful resident a pathway to lawful permanent residence in the U.S. She had reportedly applied for (but not yet received) a green card. Reports from New Zealand news outlets said that country's authorities had been in touch with Shaw, and that she anticipated being released on Aug. 14. Snopes reached out to ICE as well as to New Zealand authorities and people close to Shaw to ask about for details about the status of Shaw's case and why ICE detained her on July 24. We await replies to our queries. In August 2025, a claim (archived) circulated online that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested and detained a mother from New Zealand and her 6-year-old son despite both allegedly having legal visas for the U.S. (X user @jonfavs) One X user shared the story on the social network, writing: Sarah Shaw has a legal visa. Her 6-year-old son has a legal visa. She was driving back home, to Washington state, after dropping off her other two sons at the Vancouver airport. ICE threw her and her youngest son in an unmarked van and sent them to a detention center in Texas, where they're still being held. A mom and her 6-year-old son. News outlets in New Zealand, the U.S. and the U.K. widely reported the story about Shaw's detention. The claim spread across Facebook (archived), Threads (archived), Bluesky (archived) and Reddit (archived). Snopes readers also wrote in asking for more details about the story. According to reports, ICE detained Shaw and her 6-year-old son, Isaac, on July 24, 2025, when the pair returned to the U.S. after dropping Shaw's older children off for a flight from Vancouver, British Columbia, in Canada. ICE reportedly transferred Shaw and her son to a detention center in Texas. Shaw's lawyer, Minda Thorward, told local news media in Washington state where Shaw lived that Shaw had separate permissions to work and live in the U.S. She had successfully renewed her work authorization and was in the process of applying for permanent residency but did not have the correct travel documentation to reenter the U.S. when ICE detained her, according to Thorward. Speaking to journalists in New Zealand, Shaw's father, Rod Price, said his daughter and grandson could be released on Aug. 14, 2025. Victoria Besancon, a friend of Shaw's acting with a power of attorney, said consular officers from the Embassy of New Zealand in the U.S. had contacted ICE to advocate for Shaw's release. The New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) confirmed to national news media on Aug. 13 that it had been in contact with Shaw. Snopes reached out to ICE, Thorward, MFAT, the Embassy of New Zealand in the U.S. and Besancon to ask about the status of Shaw's case and to confirm details about why ICE detained her on July 24. We await replies to our queries. Shaw's lawyer called arrests 'unnecessary and cruel' Speaking to Fox 13 Seattle, Thorward said Shaw made "basically what amounts to an administrative error" with her missing visa renewal, and that ICE's detention of her and her son was "unnecessary and cruel." According to reports, Shaw's children had valid travel authorizations, meaning they could legally travel in and out of the U.S. Therefore, ICE's arrest of Shaw's son was unlawful, according to Thorward. Thorward told journalists in New Zealand that Shaw originally had a spousal visa, but the marriage ended amid allegations of domestic abuse. The Guardian newspaper reported Shaw had an approved I-360 form before ICE arrested her in July 2025. An approved I-360 form allowed victims of domestic abuse at the hands of a U.S. citizen or lawful resident a pathway to lawful permanent residence in the U.S. The form was not a visa in itself but rather allowed approved applicants to apply for a green card, a visa that gives the holder the right to live and work in the U.S. Thorward told Fox 13 Seattle that Shaw had a pending green card application and had recently renewed her work authorization, mistakenly thinking that the work renewal allowed her to travel outside the U.S. and return. "There's no reason to detain her. She has no criminal history. She simply made a paperwork mistake," Thorward said, adding that border agents could have allowed Shaw access to the U.S. under humanitarian parole. On Aug. 14, 2025, questions over Shaw's case and potential pending release remained. Besancon told several outlets that ICE hadn't registered Shaw in its Online Detainee Locator System for several weeks. Snopes could not find Shaw in the database on Aug. 14, reportedly her 22nd day of detention. ICE said it updated its systems within eight hours of the "release, removal, or transfer of detainees." According to Thorward, she and Shaw filed petitions with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to terminate her and her son's removal proceedings and would seek to resolve Shaw's legal status in the U.S. as well. Shaw reportedly had an immigration hearing scheduled for the end of August 2025. Corlett, Eva.

Young women in UK face more strangulation and violent threats, says charity
LONDON (Reuters) -Britain is seeing more violent threats to kill or harm young women and girls aged 16-25, with incidents of strangulation and suffocation also increasing, leading domestic abuse charity Refuge said on Wednesday. Refuge, one of the largest specialist domestic abuse organisations in Britain, said 525 young women and girls receiving long-term support from the charity reported experiencing physical violence between April 2024 and March 2025. Around half of them were subjected to strangulation or suffocation — a 9% rise from a year earlier. Nearly half of those reporting psychological abuse — about 615 individuals — said their perpetrator had threatened to harm them, marking a 4% increase. Additionally, 35% said they had been threatened with death. "Domestic abuse often goes unnoticed, yet these new figures reveal the harrowing reality: many young lives are being devastated by this horrific crime," said Refuge CEO Gemma Sherrington. "To actively tackle domestic abuse, there must be a major societal shift towards improved education that shines a light on the many red flags of abuse." Refuge said many young victims were experiencing coercive control, a pattern of behaviour designed to isolate, manipulate, and intimidate. Survivors quoted in Refuge's report described how abuse often began with subtle controlling behaviours and escalated over time. Such behaviours can often be overlooked by authorities as markers of domestic abuse. Reuters reported on Wednesday that Britain would reassess a tool widely used by the police and domestic abuse specialist services to gauge the level of risk faced by victims following criticism that, among other issues, it downplays patterns of coercive and controlling behaviour. Refuge has called for domestic abuse education to be more deeply embedded in schools and for the government's upcoming strategy on violence against women and girls to strengthen support for young people.

The horrific rise in violence against women and girls linked to sporting events
A new campaign has been launched to tackle the horrific trend of increased violence against women and girls during and after major sporting events. Crimestoppers, the independent charity giving people the power to speak up and stop crime is behind the campaign and is encouraging people to report the vile abuse. Recent statistics and reports from frontline services have shown that incidents of domestic abuse and gender-based violence spike around the time of significant sporting occasions. READ MORE: Bolton MP Kirith Entwistle co-chairs new Labour VAWG group New scheme helping domestic abuse victims in Bolton a success Bolton: Victim calls for domestic abusers' register •During the 2024 UEFA European Championships, police in England and Wales recorded 351 football-related domestic abuse incidents, almost double the figure from the previous tournament. •Additional research indicated a dramatic association between alcohol-fuelled celebrations (or disappointments) and violent incidents. On days when England won, there was a 47 per cent rise in alcohol-related domestic abuse. These events, while a source of national pride and community, can also act as triggers for harmful behaviours in some individuals, putting women and girls at greater risk. Lydia Patsalides spokesperson for the charity Crimestoppers said: 'Sport should unite and inspire us, and for the most part it does. But we cannot ignore the well-documented rise in violence towards women and girls that coincides with major fixtures. These are not isolated incidents - they represent a national issue that affects communities across the UK.' The new campaign encourages the public to recognise the signs of violence and use Crimestoppers anonymous reporting service to speak up safely if they are concerned about someone's wellbeing. Crimestoppers is also working with sporting bodies, law enforcement agencies and support charities to spread awareness, challenge harmful attitudes, and promote prevention strategies at every level. A spokesman said: "If you see something say something. By speaking up – 100% anonymously – you could help save lives. No tip is too small, and your voice is vital."
