The long delay in Alonso’s release was alarming because he is not a priority for ICE enforcement under the new memoranda put out months ago by the Biden Administration, yet ICE’s New York Field Office refused to release him. /2
During his detention, Alonso was rushed to the hospital for emergency care twice, and his unit at Orange County Jail was placed in medical quarantine lockdown for 14 days due to suspected COVID-19 cases in the facility. /3
