Hector Beltran Simental, a 44-year-old Mexican citizen who entered the U.S. on an H2B work visa in 2004 and had lived in Colorado for over 20 years, was detained by ICE on May 5, 2026, following a petty offense arrest. Despite demonstrating strong ties to the community through business ownership, tax compliance, and custody of a U.S. citizen daughter, an Immigration Judge denied his bond on June 3, 2026. The federal court granted his habeas corpus petition, finding he was improperly detained under § 1225(b) and ordered a bond hearing by July 7, 2026, where the government must prove by clear and convincing evidence that he poses a flight risk or danger to the community.
