Haitian Migrant Re-Arrested After Low Bail Release for Rape Charge

Cory Alvarez, accused of raping a 15-year-old disabled girl, was initially released on $500 bail despite ICE detainer.

Alvarez entered the US under a parole program for migrants from several countries.
He was arrested in March for the alleged rape of a disabled teen at a Massachusetts hotel.
A court released him on low bail, ignoring ICE's request to detain him for deportation.
Alvarez violated bail conditions, leading to his re-arrest by ICE agents.
The case has prompted scrutiny of the parole program and sanctuary city policies.
