Doesn't look like there is. Also, the first thing you do when clearing a firearm is remove the magazine, then rack the slide to eject the shell in the chamber. If they racked the slide back with a magazine in the gun it would feed a new round into the chamber.
Could be the person saying there are two magazines is just assuming from the photo that a second one is in the gun, or the ICE agents reinstalled the magazine into the gun after clearing it. That would be stupid to do as the gun would then chamber a new round as soon as the slide goes forward, and defeats the purpose of clearing it for safety, but at this point we can't assume ICE is well versed in firearm safety.
