Community rallies outside San Jose immigration office in support of man at risk of deportation
Briefly

A rally in San Jose supported Guillermo Medina Reyes, who faced possible deportation. He was spared from ICE custody by a last-minute court order but continues to fight his case. Medina Reyes, in the U.S. since age 6, has worked as a tattoo artist and community activist after being released from prison to ICE. Despite the court order preventing further detention, he must wear an ankle monitor and remain within a set radius of his home, with his attorney arguing this requirement contradicts the judge's directive.
Guillermo Medina Reyes has been in the U.S. since he was 6 years old and has become a strong community supporter, working as a tattoo artist and activist pushing for better conditions in immigration detention.
Medina Reyes faced a potential detainment due to his immigration status but received a last-minute court order preventing ICE from detaining him for two weeks.
Even with a court order against detention, Medina Reyes must wear an ankle monitor and is restricted to a certain radius around his home.
His attorney argues that the ankle monitoring contradicts the judge's order.
