A federal judge has ordered the transfer of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts University student being held in Louisiana, to Vermont. Ozturk claims that her arrest by U.S. immigration authorities was due to her pro-Palestinian advocacy. The judge stated that Ozturk's evidence supports her claim that her free-speech rights were violated. A hearing is scheduled for May 9 to consider releasing her on bail.
