: Legal Pad | LAJudge rules rights were not respected in government raid
By Richard Binder
An immigration judge has dismissed the case of a Mexican man facing deportation after ruling that federal agents violated his rights during a work site raid last year in Van Nuys.
Los Angeles Judge A. Ashley Tabaddor issued a written decision that immigration agents failed to follow their own regulations when they detained Gregorio Perez Cruz without reasonable suspicion that he was illegal.
The judge also determined that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents failed to advise Perez of his rights and interrogated him in an ?intimidating and coercive environment? in which he was deprived of food and water for 18 hours and forced to sleep on a concrete floor.
The government plans to appeal the decision, which was issued Feb. 10 but not announced until today.
