Immigration Judge Grants $5,000 Bond for Activist Jeanette Vizguerra, Clearing Path to Release

The ruling followed a federal order for a bond hearing, leaving her deportation case unresolved.

Overview

  • Judge Brea Burgie set bond at $5,000 and declined electronic monitoring after a two-day review.
  • The court found Vizguerra is neither a danger to the community nor a flight risk, citing strong ties and prior compliance.
  • Her family and supporters will post bond immediately, with release expected within 24 to 48 hours after processing.
  • Vizguerra has been held at the Aurora ICE facility since March following her arrest at work.
  • U.S. District Judge Nina Y. Wang ordered the bond hearing last week, and her removal case and related federal claims remain pending.
