Federal immigration agents arrested an immigrant as he was leaving court on the first day of his trial in Massachusetts on Thursday, with a judge now holding one agent in contempt for disrupting due process.

Plainclothes U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents showed up at the court in Boston and took Wilson Martell-Lebron without prior notice, according to The Boston Globe.

Without due process for everyone, no American person is ‘innocent until proven guilty’.

FTFY

It’s amazing how many people think you need to be a citizen of the US to have due process.

We are in agreement. Either everyone has the right to due process, or there is no due process at all.
