I HAVE THE ACTUAL TRANSCRIPT OF THE FEDERAL JUDGE TELLING OFF THE GOVERNMENT ON WEDNESDAY FOR THEIR ICEY SHENANIGANS!
This 40-page transcript (included for Notes from the Front members, and yes, I had to pay for it – you NftF guys know that, but for those people who insist on griping about my charging $5 a month to cover my expenses) anyways, this transcript will warm your heart (but likely not ICE’s hearts, if they have any).
The background is that the Federal District Court in Colorado had issued an order in November (I told you about that order, and in fact included the order, in this article here: https://annepmitchell.substack.com/p/ice-warrantless-arrests-challenged ) saying basically that ICE could not conduct warrantless arrests without a clear finding that the person was a “flight risk”.
However, say the plaintiffs, ICE continues to conduct warrantless arrests, and without a determination that the person is a flight risk. Examining many forms 213 (the ICE incident reports) the plaintiffs say they see, over and over, warrantless arrests with *no* finding of flight risk, where the arrestees have strong ties to the community, etc.. An example, they say, is the man who didn’t have any criminal record, no pending charges, and he had been in the United States for eight years when ICE agents pulled him over in this car. There was *no* evident assessment of flight risk, and no assessment of whether he had local family or community ties, instead he was placed in detention.
And there were many more such examples.
Said District Court Judge Jackson, “These things shouldn’t be that difficult. If we go back to the very beginning, we didn’t even need to have this case. The policy of the Agency, of ICE, was a good policy, and all they have to do is comply with their own policy and we’re good. But for whatever reason they insisted on not agreeing to that as a solution, so we had the evidentiary hearing, and I ruled, and basically said do what you said you were going to do all along in your own policy.”
They didn’t, and they aren’t.
So Judge Jackson has ordered the parties to an evidentiary hearing on March 25th, adding “It seems to me that if the Department of Justice were willing to do what the Department of Justice was created to do, and that is do justice, this should be an easy one to resolve. But we will see what you {the administration} have to say on the 25th.”
A lot of this transcript is the Judge tripping up the administration’s lawyer time and again. It’s pretty funny. Or pathetic. Ok, I guess it’s both. ;~)
