Family Released After More Than 10 Months at Texas Detention Center

A federal judge ordered the release of a woman and her five children whose more-than-ten-month confinement marked the longest family detention under Donald Trump’s second administration, according to The Guardian. The family had been held at a Texas immigration detention center since mid-2025; their case has become a focal point for advocates challenging the administration’s expanded use of long-term family detention, which had been largely curtailed under prior administrations.
