Show Notes
The Trump administrations policy of denying bond hearings to immigrants arrested within the U.S. has led to a surge in emergency petitions in federal courts, with Massachusetts seeing a twelve thousand percent increase since 2014. This policy, which skips the usual process of determining if someone is a danger or flight risk, has overwhelmed courts, lawyers, prosecutors, and judges, leading to a class action lawsuit and a ruling deeming the policy unlawful. Despite this, immigrants remain detained at a cost of $152 per person per day, while the system remains clogged and resources are diverted from other justice work.
