Judge Who Halted 'Alligator Alcatraz' Expansion Also Blocked FL Immigration Law

Craig Bannister : Aug 11, 2025  MRCTV

"DeSantis also said the judge has 'no authority' to order [Florida Attorney General] Uthmeier to instruct the Florida Highway Patrol and other police agencies to refrain from arresting illegal immigrants upon arrival in the state—which is at the center of the contempt issue [against Uthmeier]—because law enforcement officers are not named as defendants in the immigrants' case." -The Miami Herald reported

On Thursday, US District Judge Kathleen Williams ruled that Florida cannot add any new infrastructure capacity to the detention facility located in the middle of the Florida Everglades as a lawsuit against the state proceeds. Because illegal aliens who escape might encounter dangerous reptiles, the facility has been dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz."

Judge Williams halted expansion, but not closure, of the facility Thursday by granting a preliminary injunction to an environmental group and a Native American tribe that sued claiming that the project threatens wetlands, plants and animals.

Williams is not new to siding with illegal aliens.

In May, Judge Williams blocked the enforcement of a new state law that made it a crime for illegal immigrants to enter Florida from other parts of the US—a ruling that Republican Florida Governor strongly condemned, The Miami Herald reported at the time:

"DeSantis lumped Williams with other federal judges he said 'have just gotten out of control in this country' over immigration disputes."

...

"DeSantis also said the judge has 'no authority' to order [Florida Attorney General] Uthmeier to instruct the Florida Highway Patrol and other police agencies to refrain from arresting illegal immigrants upon arrival in the state - which is at the center of the contempt issue [against Uthmeier] - because law enforcement officers are not named as defendants in the immigrants' case."

Judge Williams also issued a controversial ruling against a Florida state law banning businesses from imposing COVID-10 vaccine mandates, as Ballotopedia explains:

"On August 8, 2021, Williams ruled that Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings can require passengers to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination. On May 3, 2021, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed into law SB2006, a bill that banned any Florida business from mandating that an individual provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination in order to receive services."
