Severo Gonzalez Reyes, a Mexican national who has lived in the United States since 1999, was detained by ICE on May 3, 2026, while preparing to leave for work in Oxnard, California. He was transferred to the Desert View Facility in Adelanto, California, where an immigration judge denied him bond, citing his immigration history and unauthorized work as flight-risk factors. Gonzalez Reyes filed a federal habeas case, Severo Gonzalez Reyes v. Jaime Rios et al., challenging the denial. The federal court found the immigration judge had abused his discretion and ordered Gonzalez Reyes released immediately under reasonable conditions of supervision.
