Thanks for posting that info Miguelina.

We had heard from our next door neighbor that people were actually being sent to that area in an effort to try and set up Joe's deputies. In fact, her son was one of those asked, the attempted recruitment coming from one of his co-workers. He didn't involve himself of course. I suppose this is some new tactic Bermudez and his ilk are throwing themselves behind.

Quite frankly, the entire incident involving Correa did sound a bit contrived

Apparently they are attempting a version of entrapment.

They are after Sheriff Joe because he won't buckle to their whining for exceptions to the law. He knows the law and he'll enforce it, he's never waivered. If it weren't for him enforcing immigration law they'd be loving him too because he'll get the criminals who hurt them as well. And he won't coddle them. As he said; when criminals come to his jail they won't want to come back!

If you obey the law you'd have no problem with him....the problem is theirs!

We need thousands of Sheriff Joes!!!!

He was actually playing the "set-up the cop" game, Correa is an pro-illegal activist who admitted in another news story that he did not give his id and asked if the cop was going to deport him.

I read in an article yesterday (I'm still trying to find it) that Correa had been asked repeatedly for ID which he refused to produce...

That'll get you arrested no matter what color you are.

I almost got arrested once because I had forgot my drivers license at home and couldn't produce any other ID. Furtunately, remembered my driver's license number so the cop let me go...with a ticket.
