A high-profile ICE detention case could tarnish an upcoming traditional holiday reunion between Trump and a European leader.
The case of Seamus Culleton, an Irishman who was arrested by ICE in September and has been held by the agency for five months, has reached the ears of his home country ahead of the Irish Prime Minister’s annual St. Patrick’s Day trip to the White House.
Ireland’s Prime Minister, Micheál Martin, said on Tuesday that the country will do “everything we can” to free Culleton, who came to the U.S. in 2009 under the Visa Waiver Program but overstayed his 90-day limit, which is a civil—not a criminal—violation.
