‘A mother and her two young children from Honduras who had filed what was believed to be the first lawsuit involving children challenging the Trump administration’s policy on immigrant arrests at courthouses have been released from detention, civil rights groups and attorneys for the family said Thursday.

The lawsuit filed on behalf of the mother identified as “Ms. Z,” her 6-year-old son and her 9-year-old daughter, said they were arrested outside the courtroom after an immigration court hearing in Los Angeles. They had been held for weeks in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas. Their identities have not been released because of concerns for their safety.

The lawsuit said that the family entered the U.S. legally using a Biden-era appointment app and that their arrest violated their Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizure and their Fifth Amendment right to due process.

The family’s lawyers said the boy had also recently undergone chemotherapy treatment for leukemia and his mother feared his health was declining while in detention.’


Cruel and inhumane, Trump’s immigration policy is a disastrous failure.
 
Fine. Put the children into protective custody and then farm them out to foster parents.

Deport the mother.

I guess you would call them 'getaways'. Don't worry, somebody will track them down.
 
There was no violation of due process because THEY were not deported.

Wipe the clown make-up from your face.

They were being denied due process until the lawyer stepped in told the government counsel, "Hey, asshole, back down, and, Judge, please honor the family's government status."
