Judge rules ICE sought to punish immigrants held in New York

Original: Judge rules ICE sought to 'inflict punishment' on immigrants held in NY

A federal judge has ruled that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement sought to 'inflict punishment' on immigrants detained in New York, findings that immigration advocates say confirm complaints about conditions and prolonged confinement. The ruling could affect how ICE operates detention in the region and is likely to prompt scrutiny from officials and rights groups over the treatment of people in federal immigration custody.

Why now: A court finding that ICE acted punitively toward detained immigrants in New York is significant news in the ongoing immigration debate.
