PROVIDENCE – Central Falls Municipal Court Judge Joseph Molina Flynn has resigned his position with that city following the FBI’s raid of his downtown Providence offices on Thursday morning.
Molina Flynn, once an undocumented immigrant from Colombia who would become an immigration attorney, became the first previously undocumented person to serve on the bench in Central Falls back in 2021.
It wasn’t immediately clear what Thursday’s raid was tied to.
FBI representatives have confirmed to media outlets that the agency served a court-authorized search warrant at Molina Flynn’s Dorrance Street offices, but aren’t commenting on specifics.
