Mizle also cited a handling of a case associated with alleged members of the gang Train de Argu in Venezuela, Boseburg, which was flown to Salvadoran Jail earlier this year. Boasberg ordered the aircraft to visit on 15 March, when the Trump administration removed the men under the Foreign Enemy Act. Boseberg later heard the case in which he provoked the conduct of the lawyers of the Department of Justice and questioned whether the Trump administration is working in good belief to guarantee the appropriate process for those who have been removed or intended to be removed from the US.
“Throughout the proceedings, Judge Boseberg ran the government through complex litigation, sometimes the Trump administration to respond and threaten the criminal-lower proceedings for less than 48 hours and to threaten an order for the appointment of an external prosecutor against senior officials of the Trump administration which had already been empty.”
