The problem with Title 18 USC 242 is that it is criminal and thus requires a US Attorney/DoJ to bring the charges. There is a civil counterpart which is Title 42 USC 1983, but it carries no criminal penalties and can be pretty toothless if the judge is not on your side.

A Sherif can also do this.. so can the Mareshals.. You can also use this in civic court.. " if you can prove they violated this" in our case that is easy as falling down

A US Marshall can make the arrest. For County Sheriffs and State Police to be able to arrest on violation of Federal criminal laws, the State law must authorize them to arrest people for violations of federal criminal law. However, a US Attorney will need to take it to a Grand Jury for an indictment and then to Federal Court for prosecution - which will never happen in a Biden/Democrat administration.
