He co-founded the \u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\">California Reporting Project\u003c/a> in 2019 to obtain and report on previously confidential police internal investigations. The effort produced well over 100 original stories and changed the course of multiple criminal cases.\r\n\r\nHis work has been recognized with numerous journalism awards, including a national Edward R. Murrow award for several years of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688481/sfpd-officers-in-mario-woods-case-recount-shooting-in-newly-filed-depositions\">reporting\u003c/a> on the San Francisco Police shooting of Mario Woods.

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"title": "Bullet Trajectory and Ricochet Shot Central to Steinle Murder Trial",
"headTitle": "News Fix | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>A retired San Francisco crime scene investigator testified Monday in the high-profile murder trial over the 2015 slaying of Kathryn Steinle that \"firearms do not fire by themselves.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a simple point that's at the heart of whether defendant Jose Ines Garcia Zarate will be found guilty of murdering 32-year-old Steinle, whom he had never met, as she walked with her father on San Francisco's waterfront.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To justify a murder conviction, the prosecution must prove Garcia Zarate intended to fire the gun at Steinle or a crowd of people gathered on Pier 14 about an hour before sunset on July 1, 2015. The defense is arguing Steinle's death was an accident: that Garcia Zarate picked up an unknown object wrapped in cloth from beneath a rotating metal chair on the pier. The gun was stolen from a U.S. Bureau of Land Management ranger four days before the the killing, and the defense argues it accidentally fired as Garcia Zarate unwrapped it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assistant District Attorney Diana Garcia called since-retired SFPD officer and crime scene investigator John Evans to testify on Monday. He said the initial investigation of the pier on July 1, 2015, turned up no evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But after a bullet that had been flattened on one side was extracted from Steinle's body, Evans and his team of crime scene investigators returned to the pier, determined through an \"exhaustive search\" to find the place where the bullet struck before it hit Steinle in the back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And on July 5, 2015, investigators found a chip in the concrete 12 to 15 feet from where Garcia Zarate was believed to be sitting and about 78 feet from where Steinle fell to the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that one point alone was not enough to reconstruct the trajectory of the bullet, Evans testified. He would need two \"known, fixed points\" that the bullet hit in order to determine the bullet's path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Evans conducted what he called a \"vector analysis\" to see if it was at least possible for the shot to have originated from approximately where Garcia Zarate was sitting, ricochet off the concrete and hit Steinle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They did it by pointing a laser from one of a pair of metal chairs.

The defense is arguing Steinle's death was an accident: that Garcia Zarate picked up an unknown object wrapped in cloth from beneath a rotating metal chair on the pier. The gun was stolen from a U.S. Bureau of Land Management ranger four days before the the killing, and the defense argues it accidentally fired as Garcia Zarate unwrapped it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assistant District Attorney Diana Garcia called since-retired SFPD officer and crime scene investigator John Evans to testify on Monday. He said the initial investigation of the pier on July 1, 2015, turned up no evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But after a bullet that had been flattened on one side was extracted from Steinle's body, Evans and his team of crime scene investigators returned to the pier, determined through an \"exhaustive search\" to find the place where the bullet struck before it hit Steinle in the back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He would need two \"known, fixed points\" that the bullet hit in order to determine the bullet's path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Evans conducted what he called a \"vector analysis\" to see if it was at least possible for the shot to have originated from approximately where Garcia Zarate was sitting, ricochet off the concrete and hit Steinle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They did it by pointing a laser from one of a pair of metal chairs.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 4:20 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apparent Russian agents began reaching out to Donald Trump's presidential campaign as early as March of 2016, the Justice Department established in documents released Monday, with appeals for partnership and offers of help including \"dirt\" on Trump's opponent, Hillary Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That case is made in charging documents in the case of then-Trump foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos, who pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court documents got a little less focus early in the day than other indictments involving Trump's one-time campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, and a top aide, Rick Gates, who was Manafort's deputy and a business partner. Manafort and Gates pleaded not guilty in federal court Monday to all the charges announced earlier Monday, NPR's Barbara Sprunt reports. The two men were deemed a flight risk and put under house arrest. Both told the court they have a difficult time \"assessing their assets at this point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"aE2LHRTYJWqjXHl7gtEDAAaMOfuoboDV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Papadopoulos matter speaks to the heart of the mandate for Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller — to examine potential connections between people in the Trump campaign and Russian influence-mongers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is now known is that Russia tried to infiltrate the Trump campaign — and did so successfully, at least at some level. Put in context of other reporting around the Russia story, it is a remarkable establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court documents also establish that Russia promised \"thousands of emails\" that would have \"dirt\" on Hillary Clinton to Papadopoulos in April 2016. A trove of hacked Democratic emails was released by WikiLeaks three months later — in the midst of the Democratic National Convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I will tell you this, Russia: If you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,\" Trump said, appearing to encourage Russia to continue digging. His campaign denied he was doing that. \"I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos tried to set up additional meetings or contacts between people in the Trump campaign and Russians. There were many contacts, according to the court documents, which describe meetings or messages between Papadopoulos and at least two Russians, a \"professor\" in London and a woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what remains unknown is who are the high-ranking campaign officials Papadopoulos contacted and what did those other officials do, if anything, with information Papadopoulos shared?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is known, however, that Donald Trump Jr., the son of the billionaire, organized and took a meeting with Russian nationals, who also promised dirt on Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If it's what you say,\" Trump Jr. wrote to the associate who set up the meeting, \"I love it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and a key adviser, also attended the meeting at Trump Tower in June 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the first time a connection between the Trump campaign and Russia's attempt to interfere in the 2016 election has been established by an ironclad official government source. Reporting that has linked the Trump campaign and Russia's effort has been dismissed by the White House and the president as \"fake news.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after the charges against Manafort and Gates were announced, President Trump dismissed their significance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/925005659569041409\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/925006418989715456\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos' guilty plea is going to be more difficult for him to downplay, although the White House tried to do so on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today's announcement has nothing to do with the president or the campaign or campaign activity,\" White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at a White House press briefing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that is not true. Trump named Papadopoulos as a foreign-policy adviser to the campaign. Sanders, however, dismissed him merely a \"volunteer member of an advisory council that met one time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders tried to pivot to the Clinton campaign instead, alleging it \"colluded\" with Russian intelligence to craft the so-called \"Steele Dossier.\" The dossier, which collected opposition research on Trump that eventually focused on his ties to Russia, was initially paid for by the conservative Washington Free Beacon website. The site \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/27/us/politics/trump-dossier-paul-singer.html\">is funded in large part \u003c/a>by conservative donor Paul Singer, who was a Trump skeptic and backer of Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio for president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Research for the dossier was conducted by a firm called Fusion GPS, run by two former investigative reporters. They hired Chris Steele, a former British spy turned private investigator. He has ties to U.S. intelligence and is known as a Russia expert. As a specialist, they hired him to find more information about Trump's ties in Russia that they couldn't get.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the primaries were over, the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee picked up the tab to keep the research going.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders called the dossier as \"false information.\" Some of it has been confirmed by some news outlets. Some of it is incendiary and has not been independently confirmed. Sanders dismissed the meeting at Trump Tower between Trump Jr. and Russian nationals as simply \"a meeting that took place\" and \"routine.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not routine. Opposition research is, but not seeking it from foreign governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, though, contended the Clinton campaign's and DNC's \"millions of dollars\" paid for the oppo-research file (that it never used) was far worse that Trump Jr.'s meeting — or anything coming out of Monday's court documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They took one meeting, and nothing came of it,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders also said the president had \"no reaction,\" because \"it doesn't have anything to do with us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Not the end of the Mueller investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There could be more details to come either from Mueller or the congressional committees that are investigating the Russia imbroglio. Court documents indicate that Papadopoulos has met with the government \"on numerous occasions to provide information and answer questions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is also investigating Russia-Trump ties, called Monday's developments in a statement \"a significant and sobering step in what will be a complex and likely lengthy investigation by the Special Counsel. That is why it is imperative that Congress take action now to protect the independence of the Special Counsel, wherever or however high his investigation may lead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office also said he wants bipartisan members of Congress to \"make clear\" to President Trump \"that issuing pardons to any of his associates or to himself would be unacceptable, and result in immediate, bipartisan action by Congress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has the unfettered ability to pardon anyone from federal crimes. But that only applies to \u003cem>federal \u003c/em>crimes. Some officials, including Manafort, could also face charges at the state level — in New York, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warner also put the guilty plea and indictments in the context of broader developments on the Trump-Russia investigation over the last several months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just the latest in a series of undisclosed contacts, misleading public statements, potentially compromising information, and highly questionable actions from the time of the Trump campaign that together, remain a cause for deep concern and continued investigation,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there are indications that Papadopoulos is cooperating with federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is in the best interest of our client, George Papadopoulos, that we refrain from commenting on George's case,\" his lawyers, Thomas M. Breen and Robert W. Stanley, said in a short statement obtained by NPR's Carrie Johnson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They then added: \"We will have the opportunity to comment on George's involvement when called upon by the Court at a later date.

Manafort and Gates pleaded not guilty in federal court Monday to all the charges announced earlier Monday, NPR's Barbara Sprunt reports. The two men were deemed a flight risk and put under house arrest. Both told the court they have a difficult time \"assessing their assets at this point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Papadopoulos matter speaks to the heart of the mandate for Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller — to examine potential connections between people in the Trump campaign and Russian influence-mongers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Put in context of other reporting around the Russia story, it is a remarkable establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court documents also establish that Russia promised \"thousands of emails\" that would have \"dirt\" on Hillary Clinton to Papadopoulos in April 2016. A trove of hacked Democratic emails was released by WikiLeaks three months later — in the midst of the Democratic National Convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I will tell you this, Russia: If you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,\" Trump said, appearing to encourage Russia to continue digging. His campaign denied he was doing that. \"I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos tried to set up additional meetings or contacts between people in the Trump campaign and Russians. There were many contacts, according to the court documents, which describe meetings or messages between Papadopoulos and at least two Russians, a \"professor\" in London and a woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what remains unknown is who are the high-ranking campaign officials Papadopoulos contacted and what did those other officials do, if anything, with information Papadopoulos shared?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is known, however, that Donald Trump Jr., the son of the billionaire, organized and took a meeting with Russian nationals, who also promised dirt on Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If it's what you say,\" Trump Jr. wrote to the associate who set up the meeting, \"I love it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and a key adviser, also attended the meeting at Trump Tower in June 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the first time a connection between the Trump campaign and Russia's attempt to interfere in the 2016 election has been established by an ironclad official government source. Reporting that has linked the Trump campaign and Russia's effort has been dismissed by the White House and the president as \"fake news.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after the charges against Manafort and Gates were announced, President Trump dismissed their significance.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Trump named Papadopoulos as a foreign-policy adviser to the campaign. Sanders, however, dismissed him merely a \"volunteer member of an advisory council that met one time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders tried to pivot to the Clinton campaign instead, alleging it \"colluded\" with Russian intelligence to craft the so-called \"Steele Dossier.\" The dossier, which collected opposition research on Trump that eventually focused on his ties to Russia, was initially paid for by the conservative Washington Free Beacon website. The site \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/27/us/politics/trump-dossier-paul-singer.html\">is funded in large part \u003c/a>by conservative donor Paul Singer, who was a Trump skeptic and backer of Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio for president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Research for the dossier was conducted by a firm called Fusion GPS, run by two former investigative reporters. They hired Chris Steele, a former British spy turned private investigator. He has ties to U.S. intelligence and is known as a Russia expert. As a specialist, they hired him to find more information about Trump's ties in Russia that they couldn't get.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the primaries were over, the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee picked up the tab to keep the research going.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders called the dossier as \"false information.\" Some of it has been confirmed by some news outlets. Some of it is incendiary and has not been independently confirmed. Sanders dismissed the meeting at Trump Tower between Trump Jr. and Russian nationals as simply \"a meeting that took place\" and \"routine.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not routine. Opposition research is, but not seeking it from foreign governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, though, contended the Clinton campaign's and DNC's \"millions of dollars\" paid for the oppo-research file (that it never used) was far worse that Trump Jr.'s meeting — or anything coming out of Monday's court documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They took one meeting, and nothing came of it,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders also said the president had \"no reaction,\" because \"it doesn't have anything to do with us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Not the end of the Mueller investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There could be more details to come either from Mueller or the congressional committees that are investigating the Russia imbroglio. Court documents indicate that Papadopoulos has met with the government \"on numerous occasions to provide information and answer questions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is also investigating Russia-Trump ties, called Monday's developments in a statement \"a significant and sobering step in what will be a complex and likely lengthy investigation by the Special Counsel. That is why it is imperative that Congress take action now to protect the independence of the Special Counsel, wherever or however high his investigation may lead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office also said he wants bipartisan members of Congress to \"make clear\" to President Trump \"that issuing pardons to any of his associates or to himself would be unacceptable, and result in immediate, bipartisan action by Congress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has the unfettered ability to pardon anyone from federal crimes. But that only applies to \u003cem>federal \u003c/em>crimes. Some officials, including Manafort, could also face charges at the state level — in New York, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warner also put the guilty plea and indictments in the context of broader developments on the Trump-Russia investigation over the last several months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just the latest in a series of undisclosed contacts, misleading public statements, potentially compromising information, and highly questionable actions from the time of the Trump campaign that together, remain a cause for deep concern and continued investigation,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there are indications that Papadopoulos is cooperating with federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is in the best interest of our client, George Papadopoulos, that we refrain from commenting on George's case,\" his lawyers, Thomas M. Breen and Robert W. Stanley, said in a short statement obtained by NPR's Carrie Johnson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They then added: \"We will have the opportunity to comment on George's involvement when called upon by the Court at a later date. We look forward to telling all of the details of George's story at that time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and other conservatives have tried to sully Mueller's name, hoping to delegitimize his findings as politically motivated.

By the time the undocumented immigrant got his August court hearing to consider his release, Heras was 8½ months pregnant and was caring for their three young children on her own. She had next to no income because she had to quit work to care for her older son, who has cerebral palsy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That all weighed on Heras as she stood outside the courthouse, holding the hands of her two younger children, with 9-year-old Kevin in his wheelchair by her side. She hoped the judge would see how much she and the children need her husband, Maguiber, and release him. (We are using only his first name while his immigration case is pending.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel anxious and nervous,\" Heras said, \"but I have faith that everything will come out OK.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626350\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11626350 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/IMG_5562-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yibi Heras (in white) and her children rally with supporters outside San Francisco's immigration court, calling for the release of her husband from ICE detention. \u003ccite>(Tyche Hendricks/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>She had come to court with backup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the sidewalk, about 40 people gathered around her and the children, chanting \"Free Maguiber!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some were friends, many were advocates, and they would help Heras manage the children during the three-hour hearing. A number of them risked arrest by entering the courthouse because they lack legal immigration status, and the same building also houses the regional headquarters for ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber wasn't in the courtroom. His image appeared on a television screen connected by video feed to a cinderblock holding cell in a Richmond jail across the bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While he waited to learn his fate, Maguiber sighed deeply and shifted uncomfortably in his yellow jumpsuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The younger kids, Christopher, 3, and Gabriela, 4, waved and called out to their daddy.

Then Maguiber's face lit up, and he greeted them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was more than Kevin could take; he buried his face in his sweatshirt, crying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in February, the children had been asleep when ICE agents came to the family's Oakland home before dawn and took their father away. The kids talked to Maguiber by phone most days, but they had not laid eyes on him since his arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 27-year-old from Guatemala had been deported once before, after he was convicted for using cocaine at age 18. He later returned to the Bay Area, and he and Heras began raising a family. Last year he had a misdemeanor conviction for reckless driving, which may have brought him to ICE's attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As recently as a year ago, someone like Maguiber, with no serious criminal record, would not have been a target for arrest and deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that changed in January when President Trump issued a pair of \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/01/25/executive-order-border-security-and-immigration-enforcement-improvements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">executive orders \u003c/a>tightening immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/16/immigration-arrests-increase-in-northern-california/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arrests\u003c/a> of people with no violent criminal history shot up this year -- and, with few exceptions, ICE has followed orders to detain people until they can be deported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the government tried to stop the hearing for Maguiber's release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They say someone in his situation -- who’s already been removed -- doesn’t ever have a right to a bond hearing,\" said attorney Lisa Knox.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Knox said the judge knew that wasn't true in the case of her client.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under a \u003ca href=\"http://www.scotusblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/jennings-op-below.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">decision \u003c/a>by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which covers nine Western states and two territories, anyone ICE locks up for longer than six months has a constitutional right to a bond hearing and cannot be held longer unless the government can prove the person is a threat or flight risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knox told immigration Judge Valerie Burch that her client was neither. She argued he should be allowed to return to his family until his immigration status is resolved in the courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knox said Maguiber's detention had caused undue hardship. While he was in jail, Heras struggled to pay rent. And Knox said Kevin's cerebral palsy had worsened because he wasn't able to get to as many physical therapy appointments without his father's help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And she said with a newborn on the way and a child in a wheelchair, Maguiber clearly wasn't a flight risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not a man who is going anywhere,\" Knox told the judge. \"His family needs him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge Burch hesitated, noting that Maguiber's case to remain in the U.S. permanently seemed \"weak.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even so, Burch found the government had \"not met its burden of responsibility\" to continue to detain him. She set Maguiber's bail at $3,500.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the hearing, Heras and her children and supporters found a nearby restaurant to get a bite to eat and celebrate. She was exhausted but relieved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We got what we wanted,\" she said. \"And now Maguiber is going to be able to meet the new baby.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Reunited\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates posted Maguiber's bond the very next day, and he returned home just days before Heras gave birth to a baby girl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They named her Yareli Esperanza.

He said when he was in jail he had feared he would miss her birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was scared,\" Maguiber said. \"Because I saw a lot of people deported from jail. I thought they could come and deport me at any moment, and I’d never see my family again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber says conditions in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-facility/contra-costa-west-county-detention-facility\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">West County Detention Center\u003c/a> in Richmond were tough. He got sick with allergies and his throat was closing up and his eyes were red and watering. But it took three days to see medical staff, and then they refused to give him medicine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says the immigrant detainees had to take care of each other -- and became like a family. They talked about their cases and how they had been arrested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The day the jail released Maguiber, the others gathered around him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Everyone was sad, but at the same time, they were happy,\" he remembered. \"They came and hugged me. Some were crying, others were laughing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching her kids scamper in and out of the kitchen, Heras said hers isn't the only family that has been separated by immigration enforcement. She said the father of a girl at Kevin’s school is also being detained in that same Richmond jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sad,\" Heras said. \"When you go through something like this, you don’t want other people to have to go through it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But taking care of the children got easier after Maguiber came home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He can watch two, and I can watch two,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, \"Kevin’s getting out more now. That was a little hard for me when I was alone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Maguiber returned, Kevin's legs have gotten stronger. Kevin was able to get to more physical therapy, and he used his walker more often.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes he takes us to the park or to the store or to walk for a little bit,\" Kevin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber passed the sleeping baby to his wife and accepted a large plastic piggy bank from Gabriela, who needed help to open it. Detention hurts children, he said, but that gets lost in the fight over immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a lot of children living without their dad or their mom, because they’re deporting a lot of people\" he said. \"It’s painful, because your child isn’t to blame for any of it. It’s not their fault that you don’t have papers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber still faces the threat of deportation, but his lawyer says immigration courts are so backed up that he probably won’t get a final hearing on his case for two to three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge Burch warned Maguiber that any criminal convictions would violate the conditions of his bail and could land him back in jail.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He said when he was in jail he had feared he would miss her birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was scared,\" Maguiber said. \"Because I saw a lot of people deported from jail. I thought they could come and deport me at any moment, and I’d never see my family again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber says conditions in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-facility/contra-costa-west-county-detention-facility\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">West County Detention Center\u003c/a> in Richmond were tough. He got sick with allergies and his throat was closing up and his eyes were red and watering. But it took three days to see medical staff, and then they refused to give him medicine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says the immigrant detainees had to take care of each other -- and became like a family. They talked about their cases and how they had been arrested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The day the jail released Maguiber, the others gathered around him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Everyone was sad, but at the same time, they were happy,\" he remembered. \"They came and hugged me. Some were crying, others were laughing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching her kids scamper in and out of the kitchen, Heras said hers isn't the only family that has been separated by immigration enforcement. She said the father of a girl at Kevin’s school is also being detained in that same Richmond jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sad,\" Heras said. \"When you go through something like this, you don’t want other people to have to go through it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But taking care of the children got easier after Maguiber came home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He can watch two, and I can watch two,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, \"Kevin’s getting out more now. That was a little hard for me when I was alone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Maguiber returned, Kevin's legs have gotten stronger. Kevin was able to get to more physical therapy, and he used his walker more often.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes he takes us to the park or to the store or to walk for a little bit,\" Kevin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber passed the sleeping baby to his wife and accepted a large plastic piggy bank from Gabriela, who needed help to open it. Detention hurts children, he said, but that gets lost in the fight over immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a lot of children living without their dad or their mom, because they’re deporting a lot of people\" he said. \"It’s painful, because your child isn’t to blame for any of it. It’s not their fault that you don’t have papers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maguiber still faces the threat of deportation, but his lawyer says immigration courts are so backed up that he probably won’t get a final hearing on his case for two to three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
