After Federal Judge Blocks Arrest of Illegal-alien Criminal, Cops Arrest Him for More Crimes
The New American ^ | July 30, 2025 | R. Cort Kirkwood

A far-left judge in California recently blocked Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from detaining an illegal-alien criminal — a “tattoo artist” and “organizer,” say leftist supporters and the far-left media.

And, wouldn’t you know it, cops then picked him up for several attempts of car theft, including one described as a carjacking.

“Immigrants rights” groups say that ICE targeted Guillermo Medina Reyes, 31, because he is an immigrant-rights activist. In fact, ICE targeted him because he’s a convicted criminal. Indeed, he has a conviction for attempted murder.

Yet a federal judge, appointed by President Joe Biden, thought blocking ICE from detaining him was a bright idea. San Jose cops cuffed him on Sunday for the attempted vehicle thefts.

“Beloved … Tattoo Artist, Organizer, and Immigrant Rights Advocate”

To hear the California Collaborative for Immigrant Justice (CCIJ) tell it, Reyes is just misunderstood. He is, CCIJ says, a hero. Loved by all, he fights for the right of immigrants to live in peace, free from the awful agents of ICE.

In CCIJ’s report on the judge’s action, Reyes is called a “beloved Bay Area tattoo artist, organizer, and immigrant rights advocate.” They reported he wouldn’t be detained thanks to U.S. District Judge Rita Lin of California’s Northern District. On July 18, she hit ICE with a preliminary injunction blocking them from arresting him until he gets a hearing from an immigration judge.

Said Reyes, CCIJ reported:

I can finally breathe a little. For weeks, I haven’t been able to sleep, constantly afraid that ICE could show up at any moment. The stress, the uncertainty — it’s been paralyzing. This ruling doesn’t erase the fear or the pain, but it gives me a chance, a chance to be seen by a judge,...

At first reading, it almost sounds like the Judge himself had been arrested.

Far-left judges sound like they studied law between 9:00am and 11:00am one day.

Why don’t people check or proof their work?
Sloppy Journalism? Of course.
Blame the teachers, starting as early as third grade level, for not demanding better work from their students.

Judges, guilty of more crimes, if you allow them to block arrests.

They are all products of the ABA law school monopoly. They get graded on how they answer the exam question, not what they answer.

Try being a public advocate for anything in Mexico as a foreigner and see what happens, even if you’re a legal resident.

ICE needs to take the retard up to DC and point out all the DemonRATs’ cars and tell the criminal that they just leave their cars here and never use them.

The "Immigrant rights" groups needs to have Mr. Reyes give them tattoos - one on their forehead 'We are Morons' and the face with 'Losers and Morons'.

What we need to do with the ILLEGALS is ICE THEM!! If they get iced, maybe they will think ICE will be safer!!

Wait, the teachers have to be sure if they are the right gender. It takes time for that...😀. I mean, if they are learning about real stuff (American History, Math, English), they will lose out to if they are the wrong body!!
