'He's on his way home': Attorney responds to Kilmar Abrego Garcia's release
The release follows the Supreme Court's 2001 ruling limiting indefinite detention, highlighting legal protections for noncitizens when deportation is not foreseeable.
- On Thursday, a federal judge ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia released, citing Zadvydas v. Davis, 2001 U.S. Supreme Court case limiting indefinite immigration detention.
- Detention in Eloy, Arizona stems from Kelly Yu's six-month stay at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center while deportation is delayed because China has not finalized her passport, and the Board of Immigration Appeals granted a temporary stay on June 12.
- Democrat Brent Peak and Republican Lisa Everett have collaborated and stayed in regular contact with Yu's husband Aldo Urquiza, highlighting her 20 years of upstanding conduct and local restaurants employing Americans.
- Advocates say filing for habeas relief can prompt judicial release while deportation remains unresolved, and they are optimistic Garcia's ordered release will help Kelly Yu, Brent Peak and Lisa Everett say.
- Broad reporting and requests to lawmakers have documented that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security characterized Yu as an illegal alien with a final deportation order since 2005, while her husband Aldo Urquiza and daughter Zita Yu face family and local business impacts.
