Case

Charges: Administrative deportation under the wartime Immigration Acts — expelled as an alien radical (Communist Party USA member) in the First Red Scare.
Arrested: Jan 2, 1920
Incarcerated: Jan 2, 1920
Released: Feb 2, 1921
In exile since: Feb 2, 1921
Sentence: Arrested on January 2, 1920 and deported to Russia on February 2, 1921. The source records no release on bail or bond, so custody pending deportation is recorded from arrest to sailing; if evidence of an interim release surfaces, the span should be shortened. Charges as recorded: Administrative deportation under the wartime Immigration Acts — expelled as an alien radical (Communist Party USA member) in the First Red Scare. Documented in Kenyon Zimmer’s Red Scare Deportees index, drawn from INS deportation files.
