Summary
A Boston judge held ICE agent Brian Sullivan in contempt for arresting Wilson Martell-Lebron during his trial, violating his due process rights.
The judge dismissed Martell-Lebron’s charge and criticized ICE for interrupting the proceedings without identifying themselves or returning the defendant to court.
Martell-Lebron was taken to a detention center for allegedly being undocumented.
The incident, amid broader tensions over immigration enforcement in Boston, may lead to criminal charges. Massachusetts officials denied prior knowledge of ICE’s timing, and the case is now under review by the Suffolk DA.
You gotta stop watching tv trial shows. Not everyone is jailed for every infraction.
No but they should be for this.
