In a shocking turn of events, El Paso Magistrate Judge Humberto Acosta has ordered the release of illegal immigrants who participated in a violent clash with National Guard troops at the U.S.-Mexico border on March 21. The incident, described as a “border riot,” saw hundreds of migrants, primarily from Venezuela, overwhelm security measures and storm past the border fence. Despite the severity of the situation, Judge Acosta criticized the El Paso District Attorney’s Office for not being prepared for individual detention hearings and ruled that all “riot participation” cases be released on their own recognizance.
