flag Nearly 35 immigrants detained in Maine during a 2026 ICE sweep were released after judges ruled they were not dangerous or flight risks.

flag In early 2026, nearly 35 Mainers detained during ICE’s “Operation Catch of the Day” were released after federal judges ruled they posed no danger and were not flight risks. flag The enforcement sweep targeted individuals with no criminal records, including asylum seekers and legal residents like Evaristo Kalonji from Angola, who had pending claims and work permits. flag Many were held for days or weeks, lost jobs, and paid thousands in bond before release. flag Legal challenges citing unconstitutional detentions led to the court-ordered releases, with more cases pending. flag The Department of Homeland Security has not commented. flag The incidents have heightened fear among immigrant communities, even among those following legal pathways.
