When he finished a federal prison term in March for illegally entering the United States again, Immigration and Customs Enforcement turned him over to San Francisco police on a warrant from a small marijuana sale 20 years ago; ICE asked to be notified if San Francisco was going to release Sanchez.

Why did they not simply deport him?! Or have someone waiting to pick it up the way they have people stalking courtrooms??
