    Massachusetts cops say they are more interested in good relations with their immigrant communities than deportations, with some agencies saying they’ll flatly refuse to cooperate with any “mass roundup” under President-elect Donald Trump.

    Trump in a “60 Minutes” interview Sunday pledged to act fast on his immigration agenda and said he could deport up to 3 million “criminal” illegal aliens beginning when he takes office.

    Police in Boston, Chelsea, Cambridge and Lawrence, as well as state police, all agencies that deal with large populations of immigrants, told the Herald yesterday their officers have worked hard establishing trust and enforcing immigration law is a federal problem. Several of the agencies said they do act on federal detention warrants, however.

    “We wouldn’t be part of any effort of any kind of mass roundup,” said Lawrence Police Chief Jim Fitzpatrick. He said of immigrants in Lawrence, “We encourage them to not feel that their police department in any way shape or form is not there for them in times of crisis.”


    Chelsea Police Chief Brian Kyes posted a letter to his community on the department’s Facebook page on Friday that stated “civil immigration laws are the primary responsibility of the federal government ...

    This will not change as the result of the Presidential Election.”


    Kyes told the Herald yesterday, “I wouldn’t want people to be fearful of our local police. If they’re fearful, they won’t cooperate. They won’t report if they’re victims of crimes or witnesses to crimes.”


    Cambridge police spokesman Jeremy Warnick said cops at times work with federal immigration officials to execute warrants, and shares fingerprints with Immigration and Custom Enforcement. However, he said, “We’re not conducting immigration-related investigations. ... It’s not something we do.”

    Boston police spokesman Lt. Michael McCarthy said in a statement the department “works tirelessly at building strong relationships and trust in every community in the city ... The BPD has no immediate plans to change our way of policing this city.”

    Mayor Martin J. Walsh said there are no plans to turn Boston into a sanctuary city, however. The mayor’s office said Boston police will hold illegal aliens when there is an ICE warrant, and the city has no plans to change that practice.


    State police said they now can contact Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel if troopers come into contact with illegal aliens during the enforcement of state criminal laws. When asked directly if they would partake in any mass roundup program if asked by the Trump administration, a state police spokesman said: “Investigating violations of federal immigration law is not a mission of the Massachusetts State Police.”

    If they're deported, they won't be victims of crime, witnesses to crime or the ones doing the crime.

    Problem solved.
