So someone can act unethically, reap the benefits of it, be caught red-handed, and suffer no consequences.
Sounds like a loophole in the justice system to me. More to the point, now that we've seen it happen once what has been done to prevent it from happening again?

No, it's the fundamental distinction between what is illegal and what is unethical, which is a bit more than a “loophole”. It may be that it should be illegal for ICE to ask for certain information outside of the circumstances where it has a warrant, and this may be in that category. Or perhaps ICE should be legally prohibited from asking without a warrant when there is, as here, a state law prohibition on the person they ask giving them the information. Or maybe the law should just disband ICE. But none of that is the law now.
