RI federal judge considers sanctioning ICE over man’s undisclosed criminal record
‘There was a serious breakdown in the ethical codes here,’ Judge Melissa DuBose says of Trump administration withholding details of murder warrant

Federal attorneys knew of a 2023 murder charge against a Dominican national for four days before he was released from a detention center but never alerted a Rhode Island U.S. District Court judge of his criminal history.

The warrant for Bryan Rafael Gomez, 27, was referenced in a press release issued by federal authorities on April 16. But U.S. Attorneys say they did not see it and later were instructed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) not to share details about it because the warrant’s status was unconfirmed at the time Judge Melissa DuBose granted the writ of habeas corpus on April 28.

That’s according to court filings submitted by the Rhode Island U.S. Attorney’s Office Monday, four hours before one of its attorneys apologized to DuBose during a virtual show cause hearing over the lack of disclosure.

“It was a very significant mistake on my part,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin Bolan told DuBose during the 36-minute hearing. “Among the things that I should have done, but did not do, in working through the habeas petition was to conduct something that would have been very simple to do: which is to conduct a Google search.”
