Detained for Frisbee Not Flight Risk | Oakland News
Description
A 27-year-old Ecuadorian software engineer, detained at Denver Airport after returning from a Frisbee tournament, is fighting for her release on a $3,000 bond — a case sparking national debate over due process, immigration enforcement tactics, and whether compliance with immigration law is enough to avoid detention. Her attorney argues she’s not a flight risk, while DHS focuses on her income and time in the U.S. The case touches on habeas corpus rights and a troubling trend of DHS appealing bond orders, potentially setting a dangerous precedent that could silence legal recourse for detained immigrants.
