Briefly

Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, an 18-year-old student at Milford High School, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) while headed to volleyball practice. A federal judge ruled that he could have a meeting with his attorney, denying ICE's request to transfer him to a detention center out of state. His attorney, Miriam Conrad, is advocating for his release on bond during an upcoming immigration hearing, as she argues he poses no flight risk or danger to the community.
Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, an 18-year-old Milford High School junior from Brazil, was arrested by ICE and will soon meet with his lawyer for the first time.
The court ruled against ICE's attempt to transfer Gomes Da Silva to a detention facility in Rhode Island, siding with his attorney regarding the decision.
