An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer charged in Minnesota with shooting and wounding a man in Minneapolis then lying about it could be released from Texas jail if a federal judge does not intervene. Minnesota has asked a federal judge to order the Texas governor to extradite Christian Castro to Minnesota. Castro is charged in Minnesota in the shooting. The judge is expected to announce a decision Wednesday. Texas law says Castro must be released after 90 days of detention, which would be Thursday. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has declined to extradite Castro citing the ongoing investigation into fraud in government social service programs in Minnesota.

The pilot of a speedboat that capsized during a tour around the Statue of Liberty has been arrested by U.S. immigration authorities who say he was in the country illegally. The Department of Homeland Security said Wednesday that Manuel Ernesto Hernandez-Umana falsely claimed he was a U.S. citizen when he entered the country in 2007. Hernandez-Umana has a pending federal criminal case in connection with the Aug. 8 crash that killed an infant and her mother. Online records show the 46-year-old citizen of El Salvador is being held at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Elizabeth, New Jersey. The Homeland Security secretary said Hernandez-Umana will eventually be deported. His lawyer declined comment.

Federal officials say a man from El Salvador has died at a New Jersey immigration jail. The jail has been targeted for months by protesters over living conditions for people detained there. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Monday that Edwin Lopez-Cornejo had been held at Delaney Hall in Newark after being arrested in June. The agency says he died Saturday. The government accused Lopez-Cornejo of entering the U.S. illegally. His official cause of death has not been released. His death has prompted immediate and fierce condemnation from officials and community members. President Donald Trump and his deputies have defended the center’s operations.

A federal appeals court says the Trump administration cannot deny immigrants detained inside the United States a chance for release on bond. The 2-1 decision Thursday by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals deepens a split between federal appeals courts over the administration’s mandatory detention policy. Under previous administrations, most noncitizens without a criminal record who were arrested inside the U.S. were allowed to seek a bond hearing while their immigration cases were pending. Last July, immigration officials issued guidance expanding mandatory detention to immigrants in the U.S. interior. The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement it was confident in its legal position regarding mandatory detention.
