A Maryland federal judge who said immigration officers can’t use marriage interviews as a “honeypot” to trap and deport people who are living in the country illegally, is now considering a lawsuit filed by 6 couples who said ICE officers did just that in the Baltimore office of U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services.
