Earlier this month, a woman arrested for spitting a police officer at the National Zoo was accidentally kept in jail for a week, even though the Justice Department had decided not to search for pre -priest custody, according to court documents and sources talking with CBS News.
Crystal Rios Eskwivel was arrested on 20 August, allegedly alleged to try to enter a banned employee entrance at a birdhouse at a birdhouse at the National Zoo in Northwest Washington, DC prosecutors alleged. Charge of documents During the arrest, he spit on a police surgent and also “physical contact” with an officer’s leg.
A Order of DC Federal Judge In the case of Rios Eskwelle, a series of errors or failures to follow the instructions of the court by federal and DC officials reveals a series of failures, which unknowingly came into his custody after inadvertently arresting.
In his order, American District Judge Zia Farooqui said that Rios Escvall should have appeared before a federal magistrate judge on 22 August, but “Federal officials did not bring Rosy’s escival to court until August 25, 2025.”
“At the August 25 hearing, the government did not search for custody of Ms. Rios Escwelle,” Farooqui continued. “Instead, it asked for his release on the minimum conditions of supervision.” He said in a footnote, “It is surprising why Rios Escvelle was then detained in the first place.”
On Tuesday, Rios Escvall’s rescue lawyer filed motion Claiming that he was not released and was being illegally detained. At one point, a defense counsel filed a court document in which read, “Help !!!!”

Diagnosing the problem, Judge Farooqui wrote, “The reform department informed the defense counsel that he could not comply with the order of the court as the warrant system had a ‘hit’ on the escwvel rios. However, the warrant was a lot of warrant for which she appeared on 25 August.”
The prosecutor of a Department of Justice then intervened to help the Warrant Database remove the wrong “hit”, which was blocking the release of Rios Esquivel, sources told CBS News. This meant that the name of Eskwivel Rios was accidentally coming under an active warrant in the database of a reform department, as if an incident was different from one of his August 20 arrest.
The judge called it a “false imprisonment” incident and said that this was not the first time this happened this year.
“The big question is why it takes heaven and the earth to ensure that a person is ordered to release, actually issued – in time – unanswered – unanswered,” Farooqui wrote.
Attorney of a former Justice Department told CBS News that Crystal is creating a sense of arrest and custody of Rios Escwelle.
Washington, DC Department of Karcasions in DC and the US Attorney Office did not respond to the remarks requests.
The case of RIOS ESQUIVEL is not the only ongoing prosecution in the nation’s capital, which is facing investigation in the form of a federal acquisition of the Trump administration.
On Monday, federal prosecutor in DC Admitted to filing in a court That he had failed to secure a hooliganism prosecution against Sydney Reid to allegedly attack with a federal officer. In Charge documentFederal prosecutors allege that when Reid was recording the FBI and ICE agents, a gang member was arresting, who was released from the local jail in late July, he “forcefully pushed, pushed,” the hand of an FBI agent against a cement wall, which “caused lacration”. The prosecutors then dropped the charge for an abuse, which does not require a grand jury prosecution.
