Federal judge in Arizona says courts not equipped for more border cases

PHOENIX — The U.S. attorney general announced this week that anyone caught crossing the border illegally would be detained and referred for prosecution, but a federal district court judge in Arizona said there’s one major problem.
U.S. District Judge Raner Collins said the courts in Arizona were already working at capacity and can’t handle more prosecutions.
“We don’t have the staff,” he said. “We don’t have the personnel. We don’t have the room to be able to do anything more than we’re doing right now with regards to these type of cases.”
Collins said federal prosecutors in Arizona are struggling to keep up with the case load. They’re getting about 75 cases involving unauthorized U.S.-Mexico border crossings per day.
Speaking outside an immigration enforcement center in San Diego on Monday, Sessions issued a blunt warning to immigrants who try to cross the border illegally.
“If you cross this border unlawfully, then we will prosecute you,” he said. “It’s that simple.”
He said the Department of Homeland Security would be referring all unauthorized border crossings for prosecution and that the Department of Justice would take up the cases.
Sessions also said he was sending 35 prosecutors to the Southwest, including six for Arizona, and moving 18 immigration judges to the border.
“These are supervisory judges that don’t have existing caseloads and will be able to function full time on moving these cases,” he said, adding there would be a 50 percent increase in the number of immigration judges.
But Collins said he hasn’t seen any help from the feds yet.
“We haven’t been given one extra judge, one extra clerk, not even one extra paper clip at this point,” he said.
Collins said additional resources as well as bigger buildings also were needed.
“We only have so much room, and it’s full,” he said.

Like I've said, this is a logistics task, not a legal one, and all of this needs to be moved back to DHS from DOJ. They don't know how to catch people, detain them or arrest them, all they know how to do is read their law books and listen to lawyers telling sob stories for their clients. Nielsen doesn't know what to do, she doesn't even know what to say, so she needs to be replaced immediately. Homan should be appointed Deputy Secretary of DHS. That man knows what to do.

Sessions just made his speech on the 9th and this article is dated the 10th. Nothing but Speed Racer and the Road Runner move that fast.
Seriously, I expect it'll take a week or two to get everything in place. Unfortunately the wheels of government have never been known to move very fast."The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" ** Edmund Burke**

Just goes to prove how screwed up our U.S. Congress is when it comes to combating illegal immigration and increasing border security. I say that because we all know how hard Jeff Sessions fought for us as a member of the U.S. Senate. Unfortunately, Mr. Sessions is only one man. If we had a whole Congress of Jeff Sessions', we wouldn't be facing the issues on illegal immigration and weak border security we are today.
