Man ordered detained by ICE 9 times arrested on suspicion of woman's stabbing death

5. Did you even read your own fucking article? ICE could have gotten him upon his release, but didn't.

From the article:

Cortese, the county supervisor, said the county has for many years provided ICE with “complete real-time computer data” about such individuals in their custody and their scheduled release dates.

“Generally, despite having this information, ICE does not show up to take custody in a timely manner to avoid release into the community,” he said. “That handoff could otherwise take place seamlessly if ICE would merely show up at or prior to the release date.”

So why didn't ICE show up upon his release if they issued 9 detain requests? Were they too fucking busy caging babies??

This cannot be blamed on sanctuary laws, which merely require that ICE provide a warrant if they want a county jail to hold someone for them. That makes perfect sense. Otherwise, our county jails would become detention facilities for ICE. County jails are already overcrowded. ICE has its own detention facilities. ICE should have put this guy in one of them upon his release, but ICE failed to do so upon being notified of his impending release. This is on ICE, not the county.

Interesting that you would fail to mention this salient point while wringing your hands over how this story supposedly "gives ammunition" to the "build the wall crowd."

You know what fuels the "build the wall" bigots? Unthinking repetition of their bullshit talking points.
