A federal judge in New Mexico has dismissed trespassing charges against nearly 100 migrants who were arrested for entering a newly declared military zone along the U.S.-Mexico border, ruling that the government failed to demonstrate the migrants knew they were entering restricted land.
"The United States provides no facts from which one could reasonably conclude that the Defendant knew he was entering the military zone," ruled Chief U.S. Magistrate Judge Gregory B. Wormuth.
