A federal judge has ruled in favor of a Nashville mother who triggered a national outcry after she was shackled during labor and after giving birth while in custody of the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office.

U.S District Court Judge William Haynes Jr. will set a hearing for damages against Metro government and the sheriff’s office in the Juana Villegas case, which grew out of a July 3, 2008, traffic stop in Berry Hill.

Now deportation looms again after the U.S. 6th District Court of Appeals denied a request that would have allowed her to stay.

Get her the hell out of here NOW!!!

Villegas’ lawyer, Elliott Ozment, said the judge’s decision was courageous, declaring that no pregnant woman should be subjected to such treatment

Well then maybe they shouldn't break the law! But that argument no longer matters with these judicial activists sitting on the bench across this country anyway. So why bother.

Looks like this woman is absolutely untouchable being not only an illegal invader, but pregnant to boot!
