“Young, an 84-year-old jurist appointed by Ronald Reagan, said that the manner of #RumeysaOzturk’s arrest seemed unusual to him.

“‘I’m not accustomed to … law enforcement officers without identification, approaching individuals masked and you know, not having a warrant…’”

Right now Judge Sessions is hearing arguments on whether #ICE gets to impose extra conditions of release on #RümeysaÖztürk, who is already out on #bail.

(Sessions declined to attach ICE conditions at the time of release last week, but said he'd consider a written proposal later).

Yesterday, #Öztürk's attys asked Sessions to reject all of ICE's proposed additional conditions of release, calling them unjustified & unjustifiable.

Shame on everyone involved in this egregious assault on civil liberty.

The judge noted, “There has been no evidence introduced by the government [specifically Trump Regime] other than the op-ed. That literally is the case. There is no evidence here."

JAILED FOR
MORE THAN SIX WEEKS.

POLITICAL PRISONER JAILED BY REPUBLICANS.

"These are very substantial claims of First Amendment and due process violations. This is a woman who is just totally committed to her academic career in a caring and compassionate way. There is no evidence that she has engaged in violence or advocated violence."

~ AllRiseNews on the court ruling, quoted by Ron Filipkowski

"Öztürk was dragged off the street by masked ICE agents in front of her apartment in Somerville, Massachusetts, on March 25 — yes, that is six weeks ago — in a display of police-state theater intended to demonstrate that the Trump administration would use the full power of the law against any immigrants it can, including those who are in the US legally, like Öztürk, who’s working on a PhD at Tufts University."

"Sessions ordered Ozturk be released 'immediately' and with no travel restrictions while her habeas case proceeds in a ruling from the bench a little past 1 p.m., concluding that she has raised 'a very substantial First Amendment claim' in her underlying habeas challenge, in addition to a 'substantial claim' that the Trump administration violated her due process rights regarding her detention as well."

"At the conclusion of a three-hour bail hearing on Friday, U.S. District Judge William Sessions in Vermont ordered that Rumeysa Ozturk be released from detention more than six weeks after she was nabbed off the street by federal officials on March 25."

@beep Perhaps the Administration’s instructions to ICE ought clearly to follow the law.
“Lower level judges should not be dictating the foreign policy of the United States," said press secretary Karoline Leavitt, while top Trump advisor Stephen Miller called the ruling a "judicial coup by a handful of Marxist judges" and added, "We cannot individually litigate in court every single visa that we want to revoke."
It is ICE which illegally revokes visas.

'“Despite an 11th hour attempt to delay her freedom by trying to force her to wear an ankle monitor, Rumeysa is now free and is excited to return home, free of monitoring or restriction,” attorney Mahsa Khanbabai said.'

Seth Stern, director of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF), commenting on #RumeysaOzturk 's release ruling:

“it is unfathomable that in the [US] legal system, it takes 45 days for a judge to rule that people can’t be put behind bars for writing op-eds the government doesn’t like. Without a system committed to its principles, the Constitution is just words on paper.... Öztürk’s abduction and imprisonment is one of the most shameful chapters in First Amendment history"
