An asylum seeker from Guatemala, who was arrested by ICE agents at the Multnomah County Courthouse in Portland, has been transported to the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma, Washington. The arrest occurred during a routine court appearance for a minor traffic violation, sparking concerns about the safety and rights of immigrants in courthouses. U.S. District Judge Michael H.

Advocates argue that such actions create a chilling effect on immigrants' willingness to engage with the legal system, while ICE maintains that the arrest was part of routine enforcement activities.
