Martins Ferry police said they detained seven construction workers at the new high school on suspicion of being illegal immigrants.

The suspects were doing work at the new Martins Ferry school complex in the city.

Police said none of the suspects spoke English and two admitted they were in the U.S. illegally.

Investigators said they were tipped off by two anonymous persons.

The suspects work for a contractor out of Columbus, police said.

They are being detained at the Belmont County Jail and will be turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials.

They should go and "detain" the contractor now...for about 5 years.

When the school falls down around the students, they'll wonder why.

This article reminds me that I heard about someone just yesterday who is having a hard time finding construction work (which he's done for many yrs) due to the illegals. It just isn't right!

Great Idea

They should check for feces.

Why have they not gone after the contractor?? Illegals should not be working any where near a school can't even imagine what the girls were subjected to.

Immigration and Nationality Act

(10) 1/ 9/ In the event the Attorney General determines that an actual or imminent mass influx of aliens arriving off the coast of the United States, or near a land border, presents urgent circumstances requiring an immediate Federal response, the Attorney General may authorize any State or local law enforcement officer, with the consent of the head of the department, agency, or establishment under whose jurisdiction the individual is serving, to perform or exercise any of the powers, privileges, or duties conferred or imposed by this Act or regulations issued thereunder upon officers or employees of the Service.

How many illegals do you suppose it takes to present an urgent immediate response from our government??
