The more to it is that if people start getting gulaged at their court dates, everyone stops showing up for court dates.

The judge wants justice for the crime she's hearing. And yeah, I'm sure she also doesn't approve of punishments in general without due process.

Thanks, that's some pretty important context from the judge's prospective.

The other side is that ICE wants to sow fear, making the legal process impossible and then they can point to that and say "see? We should just put everyone in a camp in El Salvador without trial!"
