Newark Mayor Ras Baraka is set to face trial in mid-July after being charged with trespassing during a protest outside the Delaney Hall ICE facility. Baraka argues he was unjustly arrested and claims he was invited onto the property. His defense contends he is a victim of selective prosecution by the federal government, especially under the Trump administration's immigration policies. The mayor has received significant public support during the legal proceedings and has expressed intentions to fight the charges, which carry a maximum of 30 days in jail and a fine.
