Minneapolis County Attorney Urges Governor Abbott to Expedite ICE Agent Extradition
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty has requested Texas Governor Greg Abbott to expedite the extradition of Christian Castro, an ICE agent charged with multiple counts of second-degree assault and falsely reporting a crime. Castro, accused of shooting Julio Sosa-Celis in Minneapolis, remains detained in Texas as his extradition paperwork awaits Abbott's signature. The delay has stalled court proceedings in Minnesota. Tom Hogan, a law professor, notes that political disagreements can complicate extradition processes. Moriarty's letter emphasizes compliance with legal procedures and urges immediate action to facilitate Castro's return to Minnesota for trial.
