IMHO, it's far more important than any individual case you could name. It's about due process in the 5th and 14th Amendments (I believe). No matter who you are, or what you've done, you're entitled to due process. Whether you missed an ICE appointment, or were Charles Manson, due process matters. If we tolerate government short-cutting that because [reasons], it's the beginning of the end for us.

1poorlady grew up in the Philippines under Marcos. She is well aware of people disappearing in the night, never to be seen again. We're dangerously close to that state of affairs.

It's one of the reasons why she has recently starting commenting to me that "the US is becoming a third world country".
