“reviews the IJ's factual findings for clear error, and independently reviews the facts, findings, and record to determine, de novo , whether those facts clearly and convincingly demonstrate that [the petitioner] poses such a danger to the community [or flight risk] that [he or she] must remain detained, including because no alternative to detention could protect the community [or prevent flight].”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the concurrence“[T]he BIA focused on Singh's prior convictions for petty theft, receiving stolen property and substance abuse. Under a clear and convincing evidence standard, the BIA might conclude that Singh's largely nonviolent prior bad acts do not demonstrate a propensity for future dangerousness, in view of evidence showing that his drug use, which was the impetus for his previous offenses, has ceased.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[W]here there is any indication that the BIA did not consider all of the evidence before it, a catchall phrase does not suffice, and the decision cannot stand. Such indications include misstating the record and failing to mention highly probative or potentially dispositive evidence.”
