Fifty-two-year-old federal immigration agent Christian Castro is facing a whirlwind of legal trouble after shooting and wounding Julio Sosa-Celis in Minneapolis. Charged federally with lying to the FBI about the incident — which initially involved an alleged attack with a broom and shovel — Castro pleaded not guilty. His release terms include a $75,000 bond, strict travel restrictions, a curfew, and mandatory mental health evaluation. State charges for assault are still pending, and his arrest by state agents sparked a bizarre twist: he allegedly failed to follow extradition instructions, prompting the state attorney general to drop a lawsuit against Texas. With federal and state courts now both involved, this high-stakes case is only just beginning.
