Press Freedom Groups Call For Release Of Journalist Arrested by ICE

March 16, 2026 Defending Rights and Dissent. , , , , ,
On Tuesday, a coalition of 41 press-freedom groups demanded that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement immediately release journalist Estefany Rodriguez. ICE failed to produce a warrant when Rodriguez, a Colombian-born reporter, was arrested on March 4, 2026. She has been in ICE custody since, moving between detention facilities with her current whereabouts likely in Alabama but unclear. Rodriguez had fled to the United States in 2021 after facing threats for her coverage of Colombia’s armed militia groups. She has since applied for political asylum in the United States, and has a pending green card application through her husband, who is a U.S. citizen.
