No more catch and release in Florida, illegal entrants to be handed over to ICE
”LARGO, Fl. – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced 17 Basic Ordering Agreements (BOA) with various Florida sheriffs that aim to prevent the release of criminal aliens back into the community. ICE places a high priority on enhancing public safety through the arrest and removal of criminal aliens from the United States. However, when an alien is arrested on a local criminal charge, all too often, they are subsequently released before ICE has the opportunity to pick them up from a local jail. ICE’s valued state and local law enforcement partners are being challenged in court for facilitating the secure and orderly custodial transfer of criminal aliens to ICE.”
The article also points out:
“Today’s announcement is about public safety – period. For years, sheriffs have had to choose between releasing criminal illegal aliens from their jails back into the community, or exposing themselves to potential civil liability. Both choices are unacceptable and that is why the Basic Ordering Agreement model being unveiled today is the linchpin in allowing us to faithfully execute our public safety duties,” said MCSA Treasurer and Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri.”
Florida has one of the highest number of illegal entrants in the United States and it’s about time those who are caught breaking the law in Florida are handed over to ICE and then removed from our country!

American citizens are sick and tired of being made into tax-slaves to finance a maternity ward for the poverty stricken populations of other countries who invade America’s borders to give birth.
