Overview

• Attorneys filed a renewed motion Monday asking a federal judge to release Jeanette Vizguerra or grant a bail hearing after six months in detention.
• The filing argues that once custody passes the six-month mark, the government must justify continued detention to the court.
• Speaking by video and phone from the Aurora facility, Vizguerra said she feels vulnerable and that her health is deteriorating.
• Dozens of supporters rallied outside the detention center, asserting her detention is politically motivated because of her immigration advocacy.
• ICE maintains she has a final deportation order and previously publicized her arrest with a photo, and the government is expected to respond to the motion within about three weeks.
