'This shouldn't have taken 3 Months' | Mahmoud Khalil speaks after release from ICE detention
Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil was released Friday from federal immigration detention, freed by a judge’s ruling after becoming a symbol of President Donald Trump ’s clampdown on campus protests.
The former Columbia University graduate student left a federal facility in Louisiana on Friday. He is expected to head to New York to reunite with his U.S. citizen wife and newborn son.
Held for over three months, Khalil was released after U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz said it would be “highly, highly unusual” for the government to continue detaining a legal U.S. resident who was unlikely to flee and hadn’t been accused of any violence.
