Description

Session 3:  What You Need to Know About Crime-Based Detention (1 hr.)

When a criminalized survivor enters the immigration court system, ICE may assert they are subject to mandatory detention. In this session, we discuss when that assertion is correct, and how to argue against it. We also discuss the impact of a criminal history on discretionary detention and policy changes affecting survivors in detention and their options for release. 

Speakers:

• Helen Parsonage, Immigration, State & Federal Criminal Defense Board Certified Specialist in North Carolina, EMP Law
• Heather Ziemba, Anti-Trafficking Staff Attorney, ASISTA.
