US EditionLeukemia-Stricken Boy and Family Sue to End ICE Detention After Courthouse Arrest
- On May 29, a woman from Honduras and her two young children filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration after being detained by ICE agents at an immigration court in Los Angeles while attempting to pursue asylum claims.
- The family entered the U.S. legally through the CBP One app and complied with all government requirements, but faced detention despite a federal court ruling barring civil arrests at courthouses.
- The six-year-old boy, undergoing chemotherapy for leukemia, was terrified during detention, left in wet clothing after urinating on himself, and the family endured hours of confinement under armed ICE agents.
- The lawsuit challenges the ICE courthouse arrest policy as unconstitutional under the Fourth and Fifth Amendments, describing the arrests as illegal and unjustified, with over 93% of recent detainees having no violent convictions.
- This case, believed to be the first involving minors challenging courthouse arrests, highlights growing immigrant fears, ongoing protests nationwide, and legal debates over protections for families complying with U.S. immigration procedures.
