A federal judge has ordered the United States government to facilitate the return of a deported man. The individual is a Mexican citizen who faces a serious risk of torture in his home country. His
deportation occurred despite his previous cooperation with federal law enforcement officials. Specifically, the man had provided valuable assistance by testifying against Mexican drug cartels.
