Tufts University doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk was released from a Louisiana detention center Friday, six weeks after masked federal agents took her into custody amid the Trump administration’s effort to deport noncitizens who have protested against the war in Gaza.

A district court judge ordered the Tufts Ph.D. student to be released on bail after more than six weeks in detention for merely writing an op-ed in her student newspaper.

Ozturk is free to return to her home in Massachusetts ... because, frankly, I don’t find that she poses any risk of flight,” the judge ruled.
