Federal Judge Rules Trump Administration Violating Immigrants Rights: Inhumane Conditions, Lack of Basic Necessities, and Courthouse Arrests ChallengedA federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration is violating the rights of detained immigrants in San Francisco, finding that they were held in crowded, freezing, and unclean cells without basic necessities like beds, blankets, soap, or clean clothes. The judge also noted that bright overhead lights were kept on all night, making it impossible for detainees to sleep properly. The ruling comes from a lawsuit filed by immigrants rights groups, which challenged both the poor conditions at the detention facility and the administrations policy of arresting migrants at immigration courthouses. The judges order requires immediate improvements, including providing beds with clean blankets, sheets, and pillows, separate sleeping areas, comfortable room temperatures, access to soap, clean clothes, and necessary medical care. The court will also hold a hearing in early December to address the legality of courthouse arrests.
