The acting U.S. attorney for California's Eastern District, Michele Beckwith, claims she was fired after warning Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino against indiscriminate immigration raids. Beckwith cited a court injunction prohibiting arrests without probable cause in the Central Valley. Her dismissal followed her insistence on legal compliance, despite Bovino proceeding with raids in Sacramento. This event occurs amidst broader concerns about political interference in the Department of Justice.
