Snafu delays deportation of more than 50,000 illegal aliens

October 7, 2016 | 2:00am



The Obama administration is reportedly delaying deportation proceedings on Central American illegal aliens who recently immigrated to the United States, allowing more than 50,000 to stay here for several more years.

The cases were delayed after an enforcement bungle that let immigrants slated to be electronically monitored via ankle bracelets simply go free when they did not report to government offices to be fitted for the monitor, according to The New York Times.

The Department of Homeland Security started using the ankle-bracelet monitoring system in 2015 because many immigrants were failing to show up for scheduled court dates.

However, a Justice Department memorandum from February shows that many people simply then did not show up for the bracelet, possibly due to the bureaucratic confusion.

Homeland Security instructed the migrants to report to a Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office within 15 days.

When they failed to report, DHS began a reconciliation process to accurately reflect the amount of cases enrolled.

For the time being, the cases are being delayed as a cost-saving measure because the federal government does not have to pay for the ankle bracelets and the courts can quickly expedite the cases currently in the system, the Times reported.

The number of migrants fleeing strife-torn Central American countries has increased dramatically over the past decade.
