+OverSword Posted July 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Quote A federal judge in Seattle ruled Tuesday that asylum-seeking migrants detained for being in the U.S. illegally have the right to a bond hearing in immigration court rather than being held until their cases are complete. U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman said it is unconstitutional to indefinitely detain migrants who fled to the U.S. seeking asylum protections. The decision reverses an April directive from Attorney General William Barr ordering immigration judges not to release migrants on bail after an applicant successfully establishes "a credible fear of persecution or torture" in the home country — a policy that has been in place since 2005. "The court finds that plaintiffs have established a constitutionally-protected interest in their liberty, a right to due process, which includes a hearing before a neutral decision maker to assess the necessity of their detention and a likelihood of success on the merits of that issue," Pechman wrote Link 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, most people on bail can't leave the state, let alone the country. They want to make sure you show up for the trial after all. That's the funny thing about our Constitution- if you are accused of breaking the law you get your day in court. They can't jail you without "due process" and a court date. And the eighth amendment says your bail can't be excessive or cruel and unusual punishments rendered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavenHawk Posted July 3, 2019 #5 Share Posted July 3, 2019 We could just send them to the Aleutians. Or we could put ankle monitors on them and they have to periodically check in. If the ankle monitor is cut, if they miss a check-in, or they do not appear in court, then put out an old-fashioned bounty on them for immediate deportation. I guess to be humane, offer more alive. But they have to take and pass a medical examination before they are released into our population, as well as a security check. They also have to have proof of employment before they are released. Once released, then they are not eligible for welfare meant for US citizens. They can certainly choose to stay in detention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jim Posted July 3, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Typically, suspects have to have ties to the community and other factors that provide a reasonable assumption that they won't flee before bond is set. Also, who is posting bond for potential immigrants who come here with nothing? Can they be detained if they can't post bond, like any citizen would be? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trump administration is breaking the law in their detainment. For instance children can be held only for 72hrs by law. But he has them for upwards of a month. You can't pick and choose which laws you want to follow. That's not even going into the Constitution is which is the basis of all our laws. Breaking that is a far greater crime than crossing a man made line to file for asylum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we even have thousands of ankle monitors and the associated hardware and personnel to track them? Then we would also need a nationwide network of cops to round up the violators. Without delving deeper into this, it appears to be just another case of a judge trying to thwart the efforts of President Trump in protecting our country. All we hear about is the rights of potential immigrants, never about the rights of American citizens to live and prosper in their own country. Detaining them at the border seems to be the only sensible solution. It gives them their day in court and protects the rest of the country until a final decision is made. If they are let out on bond before a hearing then most will waive their right to a trial by not showing up and their goal of living in the US illegally will be achieved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all local police are loyal to a liberal mayor or governor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jim Posted July 3, 2019 #14 Share Posted July 3, 2019 The bounty hunter idea doesn't sit well with me. Too messy and too slow. How do we insure that legal immigrants are protected? The bounty hunters could just round up Hispanics and turn them in. Stripped of legal documents how could their status be verified? More clogging up the courts, more revolving doors. We'd be adding to the problem, not solving it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that as, "I could not care less, dems make him stop laws, it is their fault" and "Immigrants stop our laws when the cross illegally." A crime is a crime no matter what the reason is behind it. If we started Trump administration people for kidnapping if they hold a child after 72hrs, we would be adhering to the law. Why don't we? Could it be that we aren't trying to twist the lettering of the law (Like Trump is regarding the Asylum seekers) to bypass the Constitution for political points?

The bail would have to be substantial for it to be worth their while. It doesn’t have to be the bail bondsman. Early on, it would be like picking fruit, collecting fugitive illegals.

You can't pick and choose which laws you want to follow. The law is being used against itself. It is being perverted by these judges.

And the Progs are making a mockery of the intent of the Constitution. To them, the Constitution is just a man-made line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jim Posted July 3, 2019 #20 Share Posted July 3, 2019 We hold kids in detention form more than 72 hours in every county in the country with a juvenile detention center. Since our laws already allow for prosecuting juvenile offenders then why can't we charge the juvenile immigrants and detain them accordingly? I'm not a lawyer, but another approach would be to designate the detention centers at the border as Approved Foster Facilities. Then we wouldn't be detaining the kids, they'd be in foster care. Laws are made of words and often the difference is in the precise phrasing, such as trying to define what "is" is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That whole "criminal intent" thing. Which incidentally made me wonder how a toddler can be "illegal" or a criminal if they are too young to even understand what is going on, let alone have intent to do it.
