Thread: Illegal immigrants netted by local police could be released

Illegal immigrants netted by local police could be released
The Obama administration directive comes as the president begins to assert control of the immigration issue.

Some undocumented immigrants swept up on minor charges such as fishing without a license won’t face federal detention. Instead, they’ll be released on their own recognizance under an Obama administration directive to a Nashville, Tenn., sheriff who charged 6,000 people with immigration crimes over the past 2-1/2 years.

The “release on recognizanceâ€

The directive, made earlier this month, is the result of overcrowding in federal prisons, but also ties into a broader, ongoing review of the program, known as 287(g), and its impact on immigrant communities.

What should any Immigrant community worry about if all their members are here legally? Again the legal and illegal IMMIGRANTS are losing the differentiation!

I believe that any victim of a crime committed by an Illegal Alien that was previously through the system but was released should sue the government agency that allowed their release.

Why must an American be seriously injured before deportation is considered?

The Return of Catch and Release policy. Funny how they used fishing without a license as an example.
