The Supreme Court says the government can detain -- without a bond hearing -- immigrants with past criminal records, even if years have passed since they were released from criminal custody.
The case centered on whether detention without a bond hearing must occur promptly upon an immigrant's release from criminal custody or whether it can happen months or even years later when the individual has resettled into society. The statute says simply that the detention can occur"when the alien is released" from custody. The court voted 5-4 in favor of the government.
He said it would be"odd" to interpret the statute as mandating the detention of certain"non citizens" who posed a serious risk of danger of flight, but"nonetheless" allow them to remain free during their removal proceedings if the executive branch failed"to immediately detain them upon their release from criminal custody.
