丹佛联邦法官11月9日质询移民局丹佛负责人 获释后又被捕者政府已确认14人

科罗拉多州丹佛县丹佛市,美国联邦地区法官 Charlotte Sweeney(夏洛特·斯威尼)11月9日在法庭上质询美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)丹佛办事处代理负责人 Nathan Rasper(内森·拉斯珀),追问被拘留者在法院下令释放后又立即被重新逮捕的做法。
斯威尼法官于11月4日的听证会上启动了这项调查。政府方面此前确认,共有14名科罗拉多州被拘留者在人身保护令获释后被重新逮捕,其中至少一人在拘留设施外被重新逮捕。拉斯珀在11月9日的听证会上表示,这一做法已经停止。斯威尼称这种做法构成正当程序违规,将发布书面命令,并决定是否追究藐视法庭责任。
ICE 丹佛办事处助理主任 Nichole Black 此前作证说,她接到直接命令,要求重新拘留有人身保护令获释且有犯罪记录的人员,该命令可追溯至拉斯珀。国土安全部此前表示,ICE 遵守合法的法院命令,释放令并不意味着当事人永久免于执法。
斯威尼法官此前已要求政府部门列出自10月27日以来科罗拉多州所有在法院下令释放后12小时内又被拘留的案例。
Denver Federal Judge Questions ICE Denver Director on Nov. 9; Government Has Identified 14 People Re-Arrested After Court-Ordered Releases
DENVER, Colo. — U.S. District Judge Charlotte Sweeney questioned Nathan Rasper, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Denver field office, in a Denver, Denver County, Colorado, courtroom on November 9, over the practice of re-arresting detainees almost immediately after courts ordered their release.
Judge Sweeney opened the inquiry at a November 4 hearing. The government had identified 14 people in Colorado who were re-arrested after being released under habeas corpus orders, including at least one re-arrest outside a detention facility. At the November 9 hearing, Rasper said the practice has stopped. Sweeney called the practice a due process violation, said she will issue a written order, and has not yet decided whether to pursue contempt proceedings.
Nichole Black, an ICE assistant field office director in Denver, previously testified that she received a direct order to re-detain habeas releasees with some criminal history, an order that traced back to Rasper. The Department of Homeland Security has said ICE complies with lawful court orders and that a release order does not permanently shield someone from enforcement.
Sweeney had earlier directed officials to identify every Colorado case since October 27 in which someone was detained again within 12 hours of a court-ordered release.
