Federal Judge Releases Illegal Alien From ICE Detention Despite Outstanding Felony Charge

A federal magistrate judge in Chicago ordered the release of a Venezuelan illegal alien who was arrested in a Chicago area immigration raid over the weekend. The suspect, who was previously arrested on felony charges by Chicago police, was later re-apprehended after the case sparked national uproar.

Edward Martinez-Cermeno, 24, first entered the United States after illegally crossing the southern border near Eagle Pass, Texas in 2023. He soon made his way to the Chicago area, where he was staying with his girlfriend’s parents.

Martinez-Cermeno, who was a police officer in Venezuela before illegally entering the United States, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on Sunday for making the illegal entry. In addition to the charge for illegally entering the United States, Martinez-Cermeno was arrested on felony theft charges by Chicago police in January of last year. He ultimately failed to appear for his court appearance, leading to an additional arrest warrant.

During his initial court appearance before federal Magistrate Judge Gabriel Fuentes of the Illinois Northern District Court, the illegal alien’s public defender argued that his client was not a flight risk due to the fact that he has an asylum hearing scheduled for April 2026. Judge Fuentes ultimately ordered Martinez-Cermeno’s release after agreeing that his scheduled asylum hearing, as well as his “ties to the community,” meant that he is not a flight risk.

The judge ultimately ruled that immigration officials did not have the “legal paperwork necessary for detaining and deporting him” and ordered his immediate release. Martinez-Cermeno was then freed from the MCC federal prison in downtown Chicago on Tuesday after spending roughly 48 hours in custody.
