    Thousands Poised to Enter Deportation Process After Mass ICE

    Thousands Poised to Enter Deportation Process After Mass ICE Arrest

    By Judson Berger
    Published June 21, 2011
    FoxNews.com

    The Obama administration announced Tuesday that federal agents swept up 2,400 illegal immigrants in a nationwide raid last month, starting what will likely be a months-long process of figuring out what to do with them.

    The sweep, the product of a seven-day enforcement operation called "Cross Check," was described as the largest of its kind.

    Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, in coordination with other federal agencies and local officials, tracked down illegal immigrants in all 50 states and are now housing them in ICE jails across the country.

    For some detainees, the next step will be a one-way flight to their home country. For others, the process could take much longer.

    The illegal immigrants arrested in the sweep last month were divided into three basic categories: fugitives who had outstanding deportation orders against them, those who already had been deported and illegally re-entered the U.S., and convicted criminals.

    Those in the first two categories will once again be slated for deportation, though those in the second category could also face prosecution in the U.S. for the crime of illegal re-entry. The timing of their deportation would vary, depending on factors like travel documents, the availability of flights and whether their home countries will take them.

    But those in the third category -- non-fugitive criminals -- will be placed into removal "proceedings" before a federal immigration judge. That judge then has the discretion to order them deported or grant some form of relief to remain in the U.S.

    "They're afforded due process," a federal immigration official said.

    And that process can take a while. According to a report last fall by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, it took an average of 280 days for the immigration courts to act on cases in fiscal 2010, the last year for which data was available.

    ICE could not provide a breakdown of what's happened to the 2,064 convicted criminals and fugitives swept up in prior Cross Check arrests. However, the agency reported that more than 122,000 criminal aliens have been removed from the country since Oct. 1.

    ICE officials touted the latest raid as a message to illegal immigrant criminals that they will get caught. Among those arrested were a Libyan living in Denver convicted of first-degree sexual assault against a child and a Filipino living in Orlando convicted of battery on a law enforcement officer.

    "The results of this operation underscore ICE's ongoing focus on arresting those convicted criminal aliens who prey upon our communities and tracking down fugitives who game our nation's immigration system," ICE Director John Morton said in a statement.

    The operation also sends a message to states and cities that have lashed out against a separate federal-local partnership known as Secure Communities -- through which FBI fingerprints are checked against ICE databases to see if a suspect is in the country illegally. Some states, like New York, recently came out against the program, expressing concern that it is preventing people in the immigrant community from working with law enforcement.

    But ICE stressed that in the Cross Check raid federal officials were only targeting serious offenders. It came after new guidelines were issued for Secure Communities to focus the screening efforts on dangerous criminals.

    While the administration is narrowing its immigration enforcement to criminals and fugitives, others say that approach is not doing the trick.

    Corey Stewart, chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors in Virginia, called the arrests announced Tuesday a "drop in the bucket." He expressed concern that federal officials are still letting far too many illegal immigrants off the hook for minor crimes, which can lead to major crimes. In Prince William County, two illegal immigrants with prior records were charged in connection with deadly crimes in the span of just six months.

    Stewart acknowledged that many of those swept up in the latest arrests will likely face deportation.

    "They're probably going to deport most of them. ... These are very serious criminals," he said. "But again, it's just the tip of the iceberg."

    Brazilian man caught in ICE sting deported from Miami

    A Brazilian fugitive on the lam for six years was one of 72 criminal aliens and immigrations fugitives arrested in South Florida last month as part of a nationwide Immigrations and Customs Enforcement sting.

    BY David Smiley


    A week-long, nationwide U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement sting netted dozens of criminal aliens and immigrations fugitives in South Florida last month, including a Brazilian fugitive on the lam for six years, ICE announced Tuesday.

    Among the 72 arrested in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, authorities say they collared Leandro Batista Cortez, 44, of Sao Paolo.

    According to ICE, Cortez had been an ICE fugitive since May 2005, when a judge ordered him deported.

    ICE officials turned Cortez over Tuesday to authorities in Sao Paulo.

    Overall, 2,400 were arrested last month in what ICE calls a Cross Check operation, in which 500 officers around the country rounded up criminal aliens and international fugitives.

    Months-long process of figuring out what to do with them? They are illegal invaders! Why should it take months to figure out "what to do with them!" They should be deported pronto!

    When they say our immigration system is "broken," they never point to this crap! This is where our immigration system is broken because nobody in a position of authority wants to follow the law!

    Here is part of the time problem.

    If they have no documents it takes time to prove who they are, where they are from and to get their home country to take them back. (They aren't all from Mexico.) No country wants to accept any criminal that they aren't sure is really from their country.

    Libyan Sex Offender Arrested In Denver ICE Sweep

    ICE: 2,400-Plus Convicted Criminal Aliens, Fugitives Arrested In Nationwide Roundup

    Alan Gathright, 7NEWS Content Producer
    POSTED: 10:17 am MDT June 21, 2011
    UPDATED: 12:45 pm MDT June 21, 2011

    DENVER -- A 51-year-old Libyan man living in Denver was arrested in a federal nationwide roundup of more than 2,400 convicted criminal aliens and immigration fugitives last month.

    There were 29 arrests in Denver, 13 in Aurora, seven in Commerce City and 29 others across the state.

    The Libyan man, who previously had been convicted of first-degree sexual assault against a child and domestic violence, was arrested as part of a crackdown by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in all 50 states.

    An ICE spokesman said Tuesday he would not release the Libyan man's name, citing Department of Homeland Security privacy policies.

    The operation was part of the Obama administration's effort to deport criminal aliens who threaten public and national security, ICE said in a news release.

    The seven-day "Cross Check" operation, the largest of its kind, involved hundreds of federal agents and targeted immigrants -- including those who were legally and illegally in the country -- who have also broken criminal laws.

    "The results of this operation underscore ICE's ongoing focus on arresting those convicted criminal aliens who prey upon our communities, and tracking down fugitives who game our nation's immigration system," said ICE Director John Morton. "This targeted enforcement operation is a direct result of excellent teamwork among law enforcement agencies who share a commitment to protect public safety."

    ICE said the program makes it a priority to deport, "Those serious criminal aliens who present the greatest risk to the security of our communities, such as those charged with or convicted of homicide, rape, robbery, kidnapping, major drug offenses and threats to national security."

    In total, 22 percent of the individuals ICE arrested were immigration fugitives -- convicted criminal aliens with outstanding orders of deportation who had failed to leave the country, ICE said.

    Those arrested include:
    • A 32-year-old man residing in Amesbury, Mass., from the Dominican Republic, who is a registered sex offender convicted of assault, battery on a household member, indecent assault, battery on a child and leaving the scene/person injured.

    • A 38-year-old man residing in Orlando, Fla., from the Philippines convicted of battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting officer with violence, reckless driving and refusal to submit to blood/urine test.

    • A 37-year-old residing in North Hills, Calif., from Mexico convicted of aggravated felony sex crime and rape of an unconscious victim. He was also identified as illegally re-entering the United States after deportation. He will be removed from the United States following his prosecution for illegal re-entry after deportation.

    • A 47-year-old man residing in Magnolia, Texas, from Mexico convicted of injury to a child with intent to cause bodily injury, burglary, marijuana possession, driving while license suspended and indecency with a child by sexual contact.

    To date, ICE said it has removed a record number of more than 109,700 criminal aliens from the United States in fiscal year 2011, including more than 585 criminal aliens convicted of homicide and more than 3,177 criminal aliens who are convicted sex offenders.

    Well the easy answer is to deport them NOW. If not well you can always have them move in with Obama. After all he is their kind of people.

    Their home countries should be FORCED to take them! In addition, these are convicted criminal aliens. I have a difficult time believing authorites don't know who or where these criminals came from. You're free to believe this excuse if you like, but I choose not to.

    You're right about one thing. Not "all" of these criminals are from Mexico, just a substantial majority of them likely are.

    This just came to me. "what to do with them" could mean,
    if they have outstanding local charges do they let them prosecute those charges and deport them after they serve their sentence, or deport them now without prosecuting them.
    Same for state charges.
    Same decision with federal charges too.
    Just a guess.

    Nothing more than more Obama posturing and playing both sides of the illegal alien issue. DREAMies and certain other illegal alien criminals are still living comfortably, getting in-state tuition and committing criminal acts every single day while delusionally stating that they "feel" like Americans.
