I'm seeing many inaccurate stories that say Raymon Abbas (#Hushpuppi) has been released by the Americans. My followers might benefit from a quick explainer on how the Federal system in the USA works. This image does NOT mean what you think! (Thread) 
When #Hushpuppi arrived in the US, he was first held in Chicago, and was registered in the Bureau of Prisons system, who held him in the Metropolitan Correctional Center (the triangle shaped building here)
While his first hearing was in Chicago, in the "Illinois Northern District Court", the stronger case against him is in the "California Central District Court" (Los Angeles). So the Chicago case is CLOSED, but the LA case is still open.
The last action of the Chicago court was to have a hearing about whether Abbas should be released on bail, or should remain in custody. You can see the "Commitment to Another District" and the "Order of Detention Pending Trial" issued on 14JUL2020 and 20JUL2020.
The order of detention has three parts. The relevant part here is "Part III - Analysis and Statement of the Reasons for Detention". The "Checkboxes" give the general reasons that it would be wrong to let him be released.
But then there is an option to include a more detailed statement. The Court provided one in this case:
The last sentence is the one that explains where #Hushpuppi is now: "For these reasons and those stated on the record, Abbas shall be removed to the charging district in the custody of the US Marshal."
The US Marshal Service in the United States is mostly known for hunting down fugitives, but they also safely transport federal prisoners from one location to another. It would have been the Marshals who brought Abbas from UAE to the US. and now from Chicago to LA.
