A DC federal judge dropped an order blocking immigration agents from nabbing people without warrants unless they can prove the person might bounce before getting proper paperwork, and Judge Beryl Howell called out officers for potentially breaking federal law with their arrest methods. The ruling happened after immigration groups documented over two dozen cases where plainclothes agents in unmarked cars would swoop in on people, and one guy from El Salvador even got grabbed by mistake before being cut loose.

The decision mirrors what went down in Denver recently, where another judge said agents were holding immigrants for up to 100 days without showing they were flight risks. Howell got pretty spicy about officials like Stephen Miller and Gregory Bovino apparently telling agents to push boundaries and make random arrests, and when the Justice Department tried defending it by saying the critics were non-attorneys who didn't get the rules, she basically said that excuse was wild.
