JUST IN: New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill Holds A Press Briefing On ICE Detention Facility In Newark

Published | Video Starts at 12:23

You know, our concern. My concern in speaking to many of the protesters is certainly with respect to due process. I was hearing from many of the protesters that People were here legally. They were showing up to their court hearings then picked up by ICE, put into the facility to Delaney Hall and then not having appropriate hearings. So, for example, Senator Kim said that he had heard that in one day one judge was hearing 74 cases. I believe that certainly does not give people their due process rights. (12:23–12:35)
