After a first hearing in court, the judge first came to the open, like that “Washington Post” reported.

Patel continued that the judge had last week “deliberately distracted federal officials from this”to pursue an immigrant without papers in her courthouse that it prevented the arrest.

Donald Trump with US justice in the clinch
In January, Emil Bove, now a high -ranking representative of the Ministry of Justice, called in a memo state prosecutor to act against local authorities who hinder the enforcement of immigration laws by federal officials.
Since Trump’s taking office almost 100 days ago, his government has had a bitter dispute with the judiciary about immigration policy. The Republican had a hard action against “criminal” Immigrants and mass deportations announced. However, courts occurred in a number of cases.
In a particularly much discussed case, the Supreme Court of the United States ordered that the government had to facilitate the return of a man deported to El Salvador, who is now in prison without a court ruling. So far, the Trump government has not made any institutions to follow.
