Liam Conejo Ramos, 5, and Father Released from ICE Custody After Court Order

Five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, were released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody on Sunday, following a court order mandating their release, according to a lawyer familiar with their case (CBS News). U.S. District Judge Fred Biery directed government officials on Saturday to release the pair, who were detained by ICE earlier this month in Minnesota, "as soon as practicable" (CBS News).

Representative Joaquin Castro, a Democrat from Texas, posted on social media that he had picked up Liam and his father and escorted them back to Minnesota (CBS News). "I'm happy to finally be going home," Conejo Arias, who is originally from Ecuador, told ABC News in an exclusive interview as the pair flew from San Antonio back to Minneapolis (ABC News). "Liam is very happy to be going back," Conejo Arias added. "He's going to see his mom and his brother again" (ABC News).

The release comes as House Democrats are planning to meet to discuss potential reforms to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), according to ABC News. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., stated that his caucus would meet Sunday afternoon to determine how it would proceed on funding for the DHS, adding that the agency should be "dramatically reformed" (ABC News). Jeffries told ABC News' This Week anchor George Stephanopoulos, "ICE agents should conduct themselves like every other law enforcement agency in the country as opposed to running around -- masked thugs, in many instances unleashing brutality on law-abiding American citizens" (ABC News).

In related political news, Democrat Christian Menefee won a Texas U.S. House seat in a special election on Saturday, narrowing the Republican's already-slim majority (ABC News). Menefee, the Harris County attorney, prevailed in a runoff against Amanda Edwards, a former Houston City Council member (ABC News). He will replace the late Rep. Sylvester Turner, a former Houston mayor, who died in March 2025 (ABC News).
