Courts Find ICE Illegally Jailed Thousands in Under Five Months
A Reuters investigation revealed that since October, over 4,400 judicial rulings have declared the detention of immigrants by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be illegal. This surge in illegal detentions is occurring as ICE custody numbers have dramatically increased under President Trump’s “mass deportation” agenda. The pursuit of a high daily arrest quota has led to numerous immigrants being detained unlawfully, with thousands of habeas corpus petitions filed alleging constitutional violations. Despite court orders for release, ICE has frequently failed to comply, leading to ongoing concerns about systemic violations of the law by the agency.
