Lawyers: Women being held by ICE in inhumane conditions
- Two Maryland women were detained by ICE in Baltimore in May 2025 and held in allegedly inhumane conditions during routine check-ins.
- The detentions occurred abruptly despite the women legally residing in Maryland with prior withholding of removal protections from deportation.
- The women reported no meals, no beds, no soap, no showers, and limited family contact while held for 36 to 60 hours in holding rooms designed for stays under 12 hours.
- Federal Judge Julie R. Rubin issued an emergency injunction preventing deportation of the women during their lawsuit, which challenges ICE for unconstitutional, inhumane, and policy-violating detention conditions.
- The case highlights systemic issues with ICE's detention practices in Baltimore and prompts advocacy for safer conditions and legal protections for detainees.
