Rally outside CBP office in Detroit condemns Trump's mass deportations
A small but vocal group of demonstrators rallied Wednesday, June 11, outside the U.S. Customs and Border Protection office on Michigan Avenue in Detroit to oppose ongoing Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids and deportations, as large-scale protests unfold in Los Angeles. Organized by BAMN — the Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action, Integration and Immigrant Rights and Fight for Equality By Any Means Necessary — the rally aimed to spotlight what activists describe as a coordinated assault on immigrant communities. "We're here to stand in solidarity with our fellow organizers and everybody in LA who's standing up. That's what we need to do in every city across the country to stop (President Donald) Trump's ethnic cleansing plan," said Nicole Conaway of Detroit, a BAMN organizer for the past 15 years. Earlier in the day, protesters also demonstrated in front of the Patrick V. McNamara Federal Building in downtown Detroit, down the block from where the evening protest was held. According to activists, five or six individuals — most of them believed to be Venezuelan — were detained after their immigration cases were dismissed in court, a practice that immigrant advocates say is becoming increasingly common. "That's happening more and more. Regardless of the outcome, people have been snatched up straight out of court — and we've known people that this has happened to," said Kate Stenvig, another BAMN organizer and Detroit resident. A spokesman for ICE did not comment specifically on the alleged arrests in Detroit, but said that ICE officers are permitted 'to conduct civil immigration enforcement actions in or near courthouses when they have credible information that leads them to believe the targeted alien(s) is or will be present at a specific location, and where such action is not precluded by laws imposed by the jurisdiction in which the enforcement action will take place.' The local protests come amid escalating tensions in Los Angeles, where Trump has deployed hundreds of National Guard troops to respond to public demonstrations against his administration's immigration crackdowns. State and city leaders have said the move has only heightened unrest. 'Trump is not just deporting criminals. He is just deporting anyone who's Black and Brown, pretty much,' Conaway said. 'It's a racist, white supremacist, fascist regime, and the way to stop it is mass collective organizing and mass action like we're seeing in LA right now.' More: ICE denies Detroit high school student's request to stay in U.S. until graduation Though Wednesday's rally in Detroit drew approximately 20 participants, it also drew support from passersby. Drivers honked their horns, and a group riding on The Michigan Pedaler cheered in solidarity. Protesters held signs reading, 'Defend your neighbors against ICE' and 'Immigrants make America Great,' while chanting, 'LA has shown the way, immigrants are here to stay.' In addition to street activism, BAMN also operates a legal wing that represents families facing deportation. Conaway said she's seen firsthand how families have been torn apart at the office they were protesting outside of. More: More foreign students in Michigan targeted for deportation, including 22 at U-M 'One of our legal clients went in for a check-in right here, to this building (on Michigan Avenue), and never came out. They were detained there,' she said. Conaway added that she believes what's at stake goes beyond immigration policy. 'If Trump can win this battle, then we're further down the road to fascism and him being a dictator and not leaving the White House without force,' she said. More: Detroit criminal deportation cases skyrocket in Trump's first 100 days A spokesman for ICE did not comment specifically on the alleged arrests in Detroit, but said that ICE officers are permitted 'to conduct civil immigration enforcement actions in or near courthouses when they have credible information that leads them to believe the targeted alien(s) is or will be present at a specific location, and where such action is not precluded by laws imposed by the jurisdiction in which the enforcement action will take place.' Several protests against ICE and Trump's immigration policies are planned throughout the country for Saturday, June 14 — the president's birthday. Organizers said BAMN, along with other activist groups, will lead a march beginning at 1 p.m. at Clark Park in Detroit. Free Press reporter Niraj Warikoo contributed to this report.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia's lawyers ask judge to release him from custody pending trial
Lawyers for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran man illegally deported to his native country in March and returned to the U.S. last week to face human trafficking charges, say the Trump administration is compounding his mistreatment by trying to keep him in jail while awaiting trial. 'Mr. Abrego Garcia asks the Court for what he has been denied the past several months — due process,' his lawyers, four appointed public defenders, argued in a20-page filing to a federal magistrate judge in Nashville, Tennessee, where Abrego Garcia was secretly indicted last month ahead of his return. U.S. Magistrate Judge Sarah Holmes has set a hearing for Friday on whether Abrego Garcia should be detained as he awaits trial. However, even if she opts against detention in the criminal case, Abrego Garcia will likely be put in immigration custody and his prospects for release there are uncertain. Holmes has given both sides a deadline of noon local time Thursday to indicate whether they plan to call witnesses at the hearing. However, defense attorneys argue in the new filing that the crimes Abrego Garcia was charged with don't permit pretrial detention in most circumstances. Prosecutors allege that Abrego Garcia worked for at least nine years as a driver for an immigrant-smuggling operation and that he was transporting undocumented immigrants in 2022 when he was stopped by Tennessee Highway Patrol on I-40 with 'nine Hispanic males packed into' his vehicle. That incident, captured on officers' body-worn video cameras, involved just a few of the thousands of undocumented immigrants Abrego Garcia ferried across the country, prosecutors contend. Abrego Garcia currently faces two federal felony charges for transporting undocumented immigrants and conspiring with others to do so. But prosecutors have accused him in court papers of being a member of the MS-13 gang and engaging in a 'myriad of illegal conduct,' including claiming involvement in the murder of a rival gang member's mother and of soliciting child pornography. The submission from Abrego Garcia's lawyers is his first attempt to rebut the criminal allegations against him. The attorneys used the filing to poke holes in the government's legal arguments while making few factual claims that could complicate his future defense in the case. Abrego Garcia 'obviously denies the government's baseless gang-affiliation allegations,' his attorneys said, while not grappling with the murder and child pornography claims prosecutors have floated but not charged. The defense attorneys argue that Abrego Garcia is not a danger to the public and poses no risk of fleeing rather than facing the charges against him, the two bases upon which prosecutors are seeking to keep him incarcerated. 'Mr. Abrego Garcia must be released,' they say. Abrego Garcia entered the United States in 2012 and sought asylum in 2019, after he was detained and faced deportation proceedings. Though his claim was denied, an immigration judge agreed to bar immigration officials from sending him back to El Salvador because of the potential that he might be targeted for violence by a local gang. But in March, amid President Donald Trump's mass deportation effort, Abrego Garcia was whisked onto an airplane and sent to El Salvador without warning, violating the 2019 order, which remains in effect. Despite the error, which the Trump administration repeatedly acknowledged in court, Trump and his aides resisted court orders to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return. They disparaged him as a criminal gang member and mocked legal efforts aimed at securing his return. Trump and El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, discussed the issue publicly in the Oval Office and rejected suggestions that they return Abrego Garcia to the United States. That changed last week after the criminal case was made public. Bukele said he had no qualms returning Abrego Garcia, given the charges against him. In the meantime, Abrego Garcia became emblematic of Trump's haphazard race to fulfill his mass deportation promise, marked by repeated court rulings that found him to be violating due process rights and several other admissions of erroneous deportations. That publicity, Abrego Garcia's lawyers say, suggests he may have an even stronger case against deportation to El Salvador when the criminal matter is resolved — even if he's convicted.
