Boston judge holds ICE agent in contempt after man detained mid-trial

Awww, judge big mad.

And no, his contempt cite won't hold.

Sorry, "Judge" you aren't running America.



A man facing criminal charges in Boston was detained in the middle of his trial last week by federal immigration agents, prompting the judge to hold the ICE agent in contempt and dismiss the case.
Wilson Martell-Lebron was facing two felony charges from 2020 related to filing a false application for a driver’s license. After some COVID-related delays, his jury trial began last Thursday, according to court records. Court records note that Martell-Lebron was present, with a Spanish interpreter, on Thursday, but did not appear on Friday.
The Boston Globe first reported that Martell-Lebron was detained by ICE agents late Thursday afternoon. Plainclothes ICE agents placed Martell-Lebron in an unmarked van and drove away, according to a video shared by Martell-Lebron’s defense attorneys with multiple news organizations.
Judge Mark Summerville held ICE agent Brian Sullivan in contempt Monday for allegedly obstructing justice, the Globe reported. ICE Agent Sullivan, Steven Wells, and any other agent involved in the arrest were ordered Friday to appear for an evidentiary hearing, and a bench warrant was issued for Sullivan.
According to the Globe, ICE alleges that Martell-Lebron is originally from the Dominican Republic and is using a false name.

Funny the judge dismissing the case. I'm sure the illegal was really facing stiff justice from that judge.

That is often what happens when the government does something illegal.
