Judge says South Sudan deportation flight ‘unquestionably’ violated his order

  • Boston-Based Judge Brian E. Murphy ruled on Wednesday that the Trump administration violated his order by deporting eight immigrants on a flight linked to South Sudan without due process.
  • The violation occurred despite Murphy's April 18 injunction requiring 15 days' notice and an opportunity for immigrants to object to deportations to third countries outside their homelands.
  • The migrants who were deported, all convicted of serious violent offenses, came from six countries in total, including Cuba and several nations in Southeast Asia and Africa, and they were removed without adequate opportunity to consult attorneys or challenge the decision.
  • Murphy asserted that the government's conduct in this matter clearly violated the court’s directive, emphasizing that the migrants were denied a meaningful chance to challenge deportation to a country plagued by instability and well-documented human rights violations.
  • The ruling suggests potential criminal contempt charges and demands new private interviews to ensure constitutional protections, emphasizing ongoing legal clashes over aggressive immigration policies.
