Immigration Courts Turn into Deportation Traps

Immigration courts across the US are turning into deportation traps, with masked agents arresting asylum seekers outside courtrooms. Families, including young children, are separated as agents apprehend individuals without criminal records. These arrests, coordinated days in advance, are reportedly part of an effort to meet quotas, often dismissing asylum cases and leading to immediate re-arrest. The administration claims its targeting the worst of the worst, but many arrested have no criminal backgrounds. This shift has transformed legal forums into environments where immigrants are apprehended and removed from the country. DNN | The Daily News Now! The world’s first global local news network.
