Dozens of migrants caught storming border in San Ysidro won't face charges

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - The 42 people arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border Sunday will not face federal charges, a U.S. Justice Department official told 10News.

The arrestees were part of a migrant group that tried to storm their way into U.S. soil by tearing down a portion of the border fence near the San Ysidro Port of Entry. They were met with tear gas fired by U.S. Border Patrol agents.

The unnamed DOJ official told 10News the arrested migrants had to appear before a judge within the required period after the arrest. However, the judge needed them to get tuberculosis testing before appearing in court, but they couldn’t get them checked in time.

According to Ev Meade, director of the Trans-Border Institute at the University of San Diego, that may not be the only reason the judge isn’t pursuing the charges. Meade said it might not be worth the time and resources to take them to trial.

“I could very much see the government conceding and throwing in the towel and saying, ‘Look, it's not like we have some super serious charge here,’" Meade said. "It’s going to take a while to mark the evidence and use a bunch of resources, meanwhile [they're] going to keep this person in the United States whom [they] could just remove anyway."

Meade said the charges would likely have been threatening officers, vandalism, and illegal entry -- none of which carry a heavy sentence.

"Illegal re-entry, where you’re ordered by a judge to be removed or deported, and you violate that order, that’s a more serious charge, punishable by a couple of years in jail, but illegal entry is not (as serious)," Meade said.

I have never heard anything about it being a requirement for a US Citizen to have a tuberculosis testing before appearing in court.

I'm already missing our former Attorney General, Jeff Sessions. Something tells me he would have demanded their prosecution.

The judge isn't going to expose himself, his court or other people awaiting their hearings to tuberculosis. 30% or more (Fox News this morning said 60% of the people in the camps in Tijuana are sick with respiratory illness, 3 with TB). All asylum claim interviews need to be halted immediately due to health concerns.

Tolerating stupidity puts everyone at risk. CDC should have already ordered this shut down days ago. This is why I think Brock Long would be such a good nominee for DHS Secretary, he knows the nuts and bolts of dealing properly with these issues. If Nielsen had a clue, she would have already had this information about the sicknesses in the camps and already stopped all asylum claims due to health concerns.

A little about Brock Long:

Investigation Finds FEMA Administrator Brock Long Misused Government Vehicles for Private Travel

A newly released report from the Department of Homeland Security’s inspector general has determined that FEMA administrator William “Brock” Long misused government vehicles and staff on 40 trips for personal reasons, costing taxpayers roughly $150,000 in staff salary and travel-related expenses, according to the Washington Post.

Those trips often involved transportation to and from airports and homes, and one instance in which he mixed business and vacation on a trip to Hawaii with his family and was driven by an aide to a pineapple plantation.

According to a joint statement issued last week by Long and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, Nielsen has ordered Long to repay the government “as appropriate.”

For five months, from December through April, investigators secretly surveilled Long, according to the Post. During that time, he was driven repeatedly in government SUVs from his D.C. apartment to FEMA headquarters or from the Charlotte airport to his home in Hickory, North Carolina, for weekend visits. During personal trips to North Carolina, aides who transported him stayed in hotels at taxpayer expense and were paid overtime. At the trip in Hawaii, after Long had finished his official business, an aide drove the family to a Dole pineapple plantation and a volcano.

Last week, it was reported that a long-simmering feud between Nielsen and Long had flared upwhen the DHS inspector general referred the investigation into Long’s misuse of government vehicles to criminal prosecutors. Long reportedly felt “devastated and betrayed,” and he complained that Nielsen had promised to give him a copy of the investigation’s preliminary findings. On Friday, officials said Long would not face charges.
According to the Post, Long has defended the use of government vehicles by saying their classified communications equipment is necessary if he needs to speak with senior government officials. His drivers told investigators that he has never used the equipment.

The memo also noted that FEMA aides told Long in October he could no longer use official vehicles for his commute, but he continued his trips afterward.

Long is only the most recent member of the administration to run into trouble over the misuse of taxpayer money. Former Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price lost his job over a scandal involving his use of charter jets for official travel.

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has faced a number of investigations, including ones into his use of private charter planes and government helicopters, his spending nearly $140,000 on the doors in his office, and his visit to the U.S. Virgin Islands, officially on government business, where he attended a Republican fundraising event; and former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt, the most scandal-ridden member of the administration, resigned after countless scandals related to the abuse of his power in pursuit of a lavish lifestyle.

The Trump administration reportedly considered replacing the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Brock Long, over improper use of government resources in the days before Hurricane Florence slammed into the North Carolina coast.
