Minnesota’s Attorney General Keith Ellison is suing Texas Governor Greg Abbott over the refusal to extradite ICE agent Christian Castro, accused of assault and lying to police in Minneapolis. Castro, arrested in Texas on May 29, remains in custody there despite Minnesota’s June request — and Abbott’s refusal to sign off, which Ellison calls unconstitutional and illegal. With Texas law risking Castro’s release after just 90 days, Ellison vows legal action to ensure Castro faces trial in Minnesota for allegedly firing a weapon into a home, wounding someone and hitting a child’s wall — plus fabricating details to officers. This showdown underscores a national tension: states’ duty to uphold the Constitution’s Extradition Clause and deliver justice without delay.
