COURTHOUSE,
Feb 13 –A man who left Liberia
fleeing the civil war there
and entered the US in 2000 was
detained by ICE on Varick
Street on January 28.
That same day he
filed a habeas corpus petition
in the US District Court for
the Southern District of New
York, where Inner City Press
found it.
The
petition acknowledges that he
was convicted of a misdemeanor
in 2010 in New York. He was
detained by ICE inside the
interview room on January 28.
The case
had still not been assigned
out as of 11 pm on January 28.
Later it was
assigned to Judge Jennifer L.
Rochon, who set a February 13,
3 pm hearing.
Prior to that,
the US Attorney's Office filed
a rap sheet about sex with a
17 year-old who could not
consent, and damage to
property - first degree in
Minneapolis - in 2007.
This case is D.W.
v. Almodovar, et al.,
1:26-cv-760 (Rochon)
