According to the Liberian government, the decision to welcome Abrego Garcia, who was unlawfully deported from the United States in March only to return under a court injunction in June, follows its longstanding tradition of offering refuge to those in need.

Yes. I mean, look, I've been doing this for 20 years now, and it really is one of the craziest cases I've worked on. One minute, I'm here waiting for a hearing following week. And then I get a call from him, and he says, I'm in Mexico. Mexico? We have a hearing in front of a judge. And I went in front of the immigration judge. The judge had no idea what was happening. DHS had no idea what was happening.

Ethiopian national Hadush Kebatu was jailed for 12 months in September for the sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl and was wrongly freed from HMP Chelmsford on Friday morning instead of being sent to an immigration detention centre.

A Pennsylvania man who was recently exonerated after spending more than four decades behind bars has now been taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) and faces possible deportation to India. Earlier this month, Centre county's district attorney dismissed murder charges against 64-year-old Subramanyam Subu Vedam.

This is not an isolated case, because like this marriage, in which one spouse is undocumented and the other is a U.S. citizen, there are 1.4 million mixed-nationality couples who live in fear of being separated. Separation, however, has become a lesser evil in many cases, given the treatment received by those who end up in ICE custody. Many couples prefer to continue their relationship long-distance rather than enter the uncertain process of detention and deportation.

A Toyota Sienna minivan was traveling southbound on Pope Valley Road in unincorporated Napa County, 12 miles north of St. Helena, when it crashed into a tree on the side of the road.
