Awusi was pleading his case in Oakdale Immigration Court before Judge Cassie Thogersen, a Trump administration appointee. According to data compiled by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University, between 2018 and 2023, Thogersen — who has worked for two immigration courts in the state — denied about 92% of asylum claims that came before her, compared to the national average of about 60%.
