Overview
Brazilian immigrant Bruna Ferreira, who shares a child with Michael Leavitt, was arrested by ICE in Massachusetts in mid-November, initiating deportation proceedings.
Ferreira had overstayed her tourist visa, which expired in June 1999, leading to her illegal residency in the United States for over two decades.
Immigration Judge Cynthia Goodman ordered Ferreira's release on a $1,500 bond, the lowest possible amount, during her recent hearing.
The Department of Homeland Security lawyer did not object to her release, confirming that Ferreira posed no danger or flight risk to the community.
Ferreira is a relative of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, through her former fiancé Michael Leavitt, adding a notable connection to the case.
