Trump lawyers aim to deport five-year-old boy after judge ordered his release
AI Summary
Attorneys for the Trump administration are seeking to deport five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, an Ecuadorian boy who was recently detained in Minnesota and held in a Texas detention facility with his father. Liam and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, had legally entered the US as asylum applicants and were released from detention on January 31st. Despite this release, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is now pursuing a deportation order, claiming it is standard procedure and not retaliatory. Family lawyers dispute this, suggesting the move is "extraordinary" and potentially retaliatory. Democratic members of Congress Ilhan Omar and Joaquin Castro are advocating for the family, with Castro stating the administration is attempting to break legal precedent and the boy's spirit. The family's lawyers plan to challenge any decisions in immigration court.
