More Than A Third Of LA Cases Are For 'Illegal Re-Entry'
More Than A Third Of LA Cases Are For 'Illegal Re-Entry'
By Digger
If you needed any more assurance that our border is wide open all you have to do is look at the fact that more than a third of all prosecuted cases in LA and surrounding counties are for the crime of "illegal re-entry" or coming back across the border illegally after being deported.
The shear costs alone at prosecuting these cases has to be staggering and you'd figure that a cash strapped state like California would do everything in its power to prevent illegal aliens from crossing the border. Of course you'd be wrong in that regard as the state has refused time after time to work with federal authorities at stopping illegal activity along the border.
For the one time fee of a border fence though, a lot of this "illegal entry" would be ended. Not all of it, but it's a good first step rather than paying out the billions year after year.
You can just chalk this up as another cost of illegal immigration that goes mostly ignored.
LA Times: http://www.latimes.com/news/printeditio ... 0290.story
Federal authorities are cracking down on immigrants who were previously deported and then reentered the country illegally -- a crime that now makes up more than one-third of all prosecutions in Los Angeles and surrounding counties, a Times review of U.S. attorney's statistics shows.
The surge in prosecutions reflects the federal government's push in recent years to detect illegal immigrants with criminal records in what may seem the most obvious of places: the state's jails and prisons.
Immigration authorities have long combed inmate populations for illegal immigrants, but additional money and cooperation with local law enforcement have fueled an increase in such cases by the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles. The illegal reentry charge is the single most prosecuted crime in the office.
Of course the rest of the article reads like a "woe is them" article and how the feds and state agency should just ignore certain laws like illegally entering our country.

There is a solution here. Since they come here to "work" at jobs Americans "won't" do and since it costs money to jail them....
Why not put them to work while they serve their jail time? Any money they earn will pay for their stay in a US jail, and farmers will have their cheap labor. Everyone wins! IA works, farmers get labor, money stays in the US.
When they complete their sentence, they are deported. Subsequent re-entry results in a much longer jail/work times. They WILL get it.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

We can give the wealthy farm owners (like nancy pelosi) their ag workers they keep hollering about while also reducing the number of legal ag workers we have to import from Mexico since we will have a plentiful work force already here.
At the completion of their work entence, they will deported. If they choose to re-enter the US again, they will be re-assigned into the ag worker program, this time a little longer since apparently they enjoyed their first experience so much.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
