A 19-year-old college student who was on her way to surprise her family for Thanksgiving break was detained at a Boston airport and later deported despite a federal judge’s order blocking her removal, according to her attorney.
Any Lucia Lopez Belloza, who entered the U.S. from Honduras when she was 8 years old, was about to board her flight to Texas last Friday to visit her parents and siblings when airport authorities told her to step aside, her attorney Todd Pomerleau told ABC News.
Lopez Belloza was detained, informed that she had a removal order and then arrested, her attorney said. Hours after her detainment, court documents obtained by ABC News show that a federal judge ordered the government not to remove the 19-year-old from the U.S. and not to transfer her outside of Massachusetts.
The judicial has no vehicle for enforcement. Policing is an executive function, and ICE under frump has basically no guardrails, and no other policing body is doing anything to check them.
Exactly. It’s the only branch that doesn’t have some sort of law enforcement under them. And usually this is where someone interjects with US Marshalls!!1! In normal times, sure. Except they’re owned by the DOJ, and we all know how that would play out.
Technically they do. If the executive is unable or fails to carry out their rulings, they can deputize anyone. They’re just too afraid to actually do it.
If the courts want to enforce the law, they can deputize citizens to carry out justice.
County Sherrifs and U.S. Marshals?
US Marshals are under the DOJ and they’d be told to not act.
I think the judge would need to deputize someone so they could act outside the DOJ, or at least take directions from the judge.
Yes they do. US Marshals.
