Gives new additional meaning to "The Ugly American"
Another Ugly American:
Judge holds ICE agent in contempt after he detained suspect during a trial
A judge in Boston is holding an U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in contempt after he detained a suspect while he was on trial
... ICE agent Brian Sullivan detained Wilson Martell-Lebron last week as he was leaving court. But a Boston Municipal Court judge issued a ruling Monday against Sullivan, arguing that he had deprived Martell-Lebron of his rights to due process and a fair trial by taking him into custody.
“It's a case of violating a defendant's right to present at trial and confront witnesses against him," Judge Mark Summerville said from the bench. “It couldn't be more serious.”
Summerville dismissed the charge against Martell-Lebron of making false statements on his driver’s license application -- namely that he wasn't Martell-Lebron. After that, Summerville filed the contempt charge against Sullivan, which could lead Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden review the case to determine if any charges should be filed.
“It's reprehensible,” Ryan Sullivan, one of Martell-Lebron's lawyers said. “Law enforcement agents have a job to see justice is done. Prosecutors have a job to see justice is done. There is no greater injustice in my mind than the government arresting someone, without identifying themselves, and preventing them from exercising their constitutionally guaranteed right to a jury trial.” ...

What part of "illegal" do agent Brian Sullivan and ICE not understand?
67-pages! He must hope to preempt a reversal. Clearly, sleazy ICE is venue shopping with the prisoner move.
Judge Fabiarz's credentials are unassailable. As an assistant US attorney he prosecuted a would-be LAX bomber, Somali pirates including the sole survivor of the
Captain Phillips incident, and Russian spies including femme fatale Anna Chapman.
Back to the article:
... Lawyers for Khalil urged a federal judge to keep his habeas case in New Jersey to prevent the government from a "Kafka-esque" moving of Khalil from one detention facility to another.
"We are grateful the court wisely understood that the government cannot try to manipulate the jurisdiction of the United States courts in a transparent attempt to shield their unconstitutional -- and frankly chilling -- behavior," Baher Azmy, an attorney for Khalil, said in a statement on Tuesday. "We look forward to the next phase of this case, which is to get Mahmoud out of detention and into the arms of his family, and then to prove the Trump administration's attempted deportation of Mahmoud and others is nothing but unconstitutional retaliation for protected speech."
PINO, InHoman and ICE despise the 1A.
... "I am relieved at the court's decision today to keep my husband's ongoing case in New Jersey," his wife, Noor Abdalla, said in a statement Tuesday. "This is an important step towards securing Mahmoud's freedom, but there is still a lot more to be done. As the countdown to our son's birth begins and I inch closer and closer to my due date, I will continue to strongly advocate for Mahmoud's freedom and for his safe return home so he can be by my side to welcome our first child."
PINO, InHoman and ICE despise family values.
During a hearing on Friday over whether the case should remain in New Jersey, Azmy told the judge there is a "prohibition on forum shopping" to find a court that might be most sympathetic to the government's position.

What part of "illegal" do PINO, InHoman, Bondage and ICE not understand?
... After deciding on the jurisdictional question, the judge can now consider the substantive question of whether the detention of Khalil, a green card holder, was lawful.
Khalil is due to appear before an immigration judge for a removal proceeding on April 8.
He is among a half-dozen international students who have supported Palestinians to be detained by the administration in recent weeks. No charges have been filed against any of them.
The administration has argued the students' continued presence in the country undermines American foreign policy and revoked their status. Attorneys for the students have argued the administration is punishing them for lawful activity.
Will Zionism trump our Constitution again?
