Federal judge blocks ICE raids in Southern California | LiveNOW from FOX
A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to halt what immigrant rights groups are calling unconstitutional raids sweeping across Southern California.Judge Maame E. Frimpong issued the ruling on Friday, blocking raids in seven California counties, including Los Angeles County.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed the lawsuit last week, accusing immigration officials of using unconstitutional tactics in raids across the region like racial profiling, excessive force, and denying detainees access to legal counsel.
According to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), the decision includes two temporary restraining orders. The first keeps immigration officers from stopping people without reasonable suspicion, or stopping people over their apparent race, whether they speak Spanish, where they work and more.
The second requires the Department of Homeland Security to provide detainees at the federal building in dowtown Los Angeles access to legal representation.
"No matter the color of their skin, what language they speak, or where they work, everyone is guaranteed constitutional rights to protect them from unlawful stops," said Mohammad Tajsar, attorney with the ACLU Foundation of Southern California, in response to Friday's ruling. "While it does not take a federal judge to recognize that marauding bands of masked, rifle-toting goons have been violating ordinary people’s rights throughout Southern California, we are hopeful that today’s ruling will be a step toward accountability for the federal government’s flagrant lawlessness that we have all been witnessing."
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass also praised the ruling, calling it "an important step toward restoring safety, security and defending the rights of all Angelenos," calling the raids an "assault by the Trump administration."
In an email to the Associated Press, Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, said that "any claims that individuals have been ‘targeted' by law enforcement because of their skin color are disgusting and categorically FALSE," adding that "enforcement operations are highly targeted, and officers do their due diligence" before making arrests."
