When a federal judge dispatches an independent physician into the walls of California's largest immigration detention facility, it is a signal that the ordinary channels of accountability have proven insufficient.

What happens next will test whether the judiciary can serve as a meaningful check on the treatment of those who, by circumstance, have little power to speak for themselves.
