163 - Omar Ameen's immoral ICE detention, with federal defense attorney Rachelle Barbour (6.1.2021)

Omar Ameen, a father of four and Iraqi refugee who had made his home in Sacramento, was handed over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement by the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department last month after he proved in an historic extradition case that he was in Turkey at the time of a 2014 killing of an Iraqi police officer.

Now Sacramento residents and concerned Americans are fighting to get Ameen released so that he can be with his family while he fights ICE's bogus charges.

Today we're talking with federal defense attorney Rachelle Barbour about the gross injustice surrounding Ameen's case and subsequent detention.
