A federal judge has ordered ICE not to deport O.J.M., a transgender immigrant detained during her asylum hearing in Portland. After her arrest, ICE failed to inform her attorneys of her whereabouts, leading to a habeas petition filed by her legal team. They argue that ICE aims to deport her before she can present her asylum case, which she filed after fleeing from the Knights Templar Cartel in Mexico due to threats against her life. The case raises serious questions about the treatment of vulnerable populations in U.S. immigration proceedings.
ICE's actions have raised significant concerns about the treatment of individuals during asylum proceedings, particularly regarding the rights and protections afforded to vulnerable populations.
The habeas petition filed by O.J.M.'s attorneys highlights the questionable legal tactics employed by ICE that undermine due process during critical asylum hearings.
O.J.M. is a transgender woman who fled her home country in fear for her life after being attacked by cartel members who targeted her for her gender identity.
This case exemplifies the ongoing challenges faced by immigrants seeking asylum in the U.S., especially those from marginalized communities who are at immediate risk.
