A federal judge on Friday said the Trump administration is still violating detained immigrants' constitutional rights by restricting their access to attorneys at a detention facility in Los Angeles and ordered the government to remedy the matter.
Immigrant advocacy groups filed the lawsuit in July accusing the administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California during its ongoing immigration crackdown. Immigrant advocates accused immigration officials of detaining someone based on their race, carrying out warrantless arrests, and denying detainees access to legal counsel at a holding facility in downtown LA.
