Judge Session: I see no evidence of risk or danger of any kind. The court orders ICE to release Rümeysa Öztürk from custody IMMEDIATELY. She is free to return to her home in Massachusetts. Also free to travel within Mass and VT. I'm not going to restrict her travel, because I see no danger of flight

"This matter is no longer just about deportations or undocumented immigrants. The Trump administration's defiance of a Supreme Court order is a new step into presidential lawlessness," writes Adam Serwer:
The Constitutional Crisis Is Here
The Supreme Court told the Trump administration to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador’s infamous CECOT prison. So far, the administration is pretending to comply while refusing to do so.

A federal judge in Boston has transferred a legal challenge on the detention of a Tufts University doctoral student to Vermont.
Judge rules Tufts student's detention case to be heard in Vermont, not Louisiana
U.S. District Judge Denise Casper agreed with Öztürk's attorneys that a transfer to Vermont was warranted because that's where she was at the time of that filing.

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.
