A Cincinnati-based Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) supervisor is being held in Hamilton County Jail on $400,000 bond after allegedly strangling his partner. ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations official Samuel Saxon, 47, was arrested on Dec. 5 after police say he attacked a woman he lives with in their Corryville apartment. In court Monday, an officer testified that police have been called to the apartment roughly two dozen times in the last year and a half. Prosecutors also detailed a long relationship between Saxon and the victim that began when she was 18 years old and he was in his 40s. Court records state Saxon's arrest followed observations of bruising on the woman's neck and accounts from witnesses who said he put her in a chokehold in the apartment's hallway. Prosecutors noted the woman has reported serious injuries in past incidents linked to Saxon, including a broken nose in 2018 and a broken pelvis in April.
