“The Supreme Court on Monday refused to consider the case of an informant against the Cali drug cartel who says he and his family will be murdered if the U.S. government returns them to Colombia.

Immigration officials have refused to grant asylum to Diego Castillo-Arias, who came to the United States with his wife and two young sons about a decade ago after telling police in Cali about the location of cartel bank accounts and property.”
