Judge orders ICE to release Minneapolis man after 50 days of unlawful detention

A federal judge has ordered ICE to release Elvis Joel TE, a Minneapolis asylum seeker who was unlawfully detained for 50 days after being arrested without a warrant alongside his two-year-old daughter. The case sparked widespread outrage after ICE flew both father and daughter to Texas despite a court order barring their transfer out of Minnesota. The ruling is part of ongoing legal battles over ICE's aggressive immigration enforcement tactics.
