Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, the 18-year-old Milford Student arrested and detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on Saturday, has been granted bond by an immigration Judge on Thursday.

Immigration Judge Jenny Beverly set a $2,000 bond Thursday afternoon. Robin Nice, one of Gomes Da Silva’s lawyers, told press that the hope is that he is released as early as this afternoon.

Gomes Da Silva appeared virtually before a judge at the Chelmsford Immigration Court Thursday afternoon at a hearing set to decide whether he would be released on bond or remained detained.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials argued Wednesday to transfer Gomes Da Silva out of state to Rhode Island, but a judge sided with Gomes Da Silva’s lawyer and denied the request that same day.
