A judge has ruled for the release of Liam Conejo Ramos, a five-year-old boy, and his father, who were recently taken into custody by immigration enforcement agents in Minneapolis. The detention drew significant public attention after photos of the child wearing a bunny hat and Spiderman backpack circulated widely.
The images sparked strong reactions and calls for the family’s release. Following the judge’s decision, both Liam and his father are expected to be freed from custody pending further legal proceedings.
**Why this matters**
The case highlights ongoing concerns about the treatment of families and children in immigration enforcement actions. It has also intensified discussions about the policies and practices surrounding the detention of minors and their caregivers.
