A federal judge in Denver on Tuesday ordered federal immigration officers to stop making arrests in Colorado without a warrant, unless the detainee posed a flight risk, the latest in a string of lower-court decisions rebuking President Trump’s immigration enforcement tactics.
The ruling by Judge R. Brooke Jackson could be put on hold once the administration appeals, just as earlier rulings in Los Angeles and Illinois limiting immigration agents’ powers were quickly blocked by higher courts.
In Colorado, Judge Jackson, an appointee of President Barack Obama, found that immigration agents had acted unlawfully by arresting and detaining immigrants — some for as long as 100 days — without showing the required probable cause that they posed a threat of fleeing.
As if that wasn’t illegal already.
Law enforcement can arrest you without a warrant, they just have to have probable cause, and ICE does not in almost every case.
Suddenly, they’re all critical flight risks.
Give them ANY out and they’ll take it.
Oh you mean like already very well established law?
CONSEQUENCES OR JUST ANNOUNCE THAT YOU ARE COMPLICIT. YOU ALREADY ARE ANNOUNCEMENT OR NOT.
We really need to cut the shit and start going for the less popular people involved until enough people get scared enough to save their own asses and arrest, charge, and convict these big fish. Demand it of your local government until it reaches fucked head and his crew. The fact that we aren’t already going for this after a full full 8 years is insane.
