During the Trump administration in the US, hundreds of people were arrested during anti-immigration protests. However, according to a joint investigation by ProPublica and FRONTLINE, a significant portion of these arrests did not result in court outcomes. Federal prosecutors either dropped or lost many cases. The arrest of a protester named Alejandro Orellana in Los Angeles and the subsequent collapse of the case became one of the symbolic examples of this situation. Orellana was accused by federal agents of being a member of an organized riot network while engaging in peaceful activities such as distributing water during protests against the Trump administration's immigration operations. However, the charges were refuted during the court process and the case was dropped. According to the review by ProPublica and FRONTLINE, in many of the arrests, law enforcement claims contradicted video recordings. The quick dropping or losing of cases by federal prosecutors increased criticism that law enforcement first made arrests and then tried to justify them. The Department of Homeland Security, in its statement, emphasized the protection of peaceful protests while stating that legal measures were taken against unlawful behavior. This situation sparked new debates about the legal process and law enforcement practices in anti-immigration protests in the US.
