The U.S. has entered its 13th COVID wave, with an estimated 1 in 86 Americans currently infectious. Around 567,000 new infections are occurring daily, totalling 3.69 million in a week. PMC estimates a single week at this level could result in 900–1,600 excess deaths.

![V. CONCLUSION
An anonymous government is no government at all. It cannot be held accountable. A
masked agent freely uses force without justifying his actions, and the public cannot name him to
challenge his conduct.
A regime of secret policing has no place in our society. Here, the Government’s power is
derived by the People, and the People must be able to identify the Government when it acts to
infringe on their liberty. Masks obscure government action and deprive the public of its Fourth
Amendment protections.
Therefore, the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, [ECF No. 26], is GRANTED. Petitioner
is ORDERED released immediately from civil immigration custody. Respondents are
PROHIBITED from re-arresting and detaining Petitioner absent significant change in
circumstances to justify detention or subject to the determination of a neutral and detached
decisionmaker.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreiaemewbclo5k4febwr4cc6ifmoll4lyrjbhosazv7zytx4l4rrgee)
