Of the 103 inmates held at the Butler County jail under a contract with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, five come from countries listed under President Donald Trumps controversial travel ban, according to an I-Team analysis of jail records. One went straight from state prison, where he served a sentence for aggravated robbery, to the jail where he is facing deportation to Iraq.
Another claims he was beaten and jailed as a journalist in Somalia. His application for asylum was denied and he was ordered deported but has languished for months in the county jail, he says, because Somalia has no government to accept him.
The I-Team obtained a list of inmates at the Butler County jail under a contract the county has to hold ICE detainees from across the state and nation. Immigration court proceedings are not public, but the newspaper worked with ICE and searched other available records to determine why five people from three of the listed countries are behind bars locally facing deportation.
Somalia Abdurahman Dhalow, 29, moved into the Butler County jail on Jan. 6 after serving a year and a half in state prison on an assault and robbery conviction out of Franklin County.
Hanad Mahad-Mire, 27, was arrested while crossing the border in Brownsville, Texas, in January 2016. He sought asylum, claiming he was a journalist and was jailed and beaten in his home country and accused of writing propaganda critical of Somalia. His application was denied, and he was ordered to be removed from the U.S. in May 2016. ICE officials say they are working with the Somali government to secure his removal from the country, but he argues in court that there is no functioning government for ICE to be working with.
Mohammad Hassan Ali, 28, had been in the U.S. since 2001. Records show he has a domestic violence conviction in San Diego in 2010. He was ordered removed from the country in 2011 but wasnt taken into custody until he was arrested by ICE officers in Columbus in May 2016. He has argued in court filings that he is sitting indefinitely in jail because Somalia has no government with which the U.S. can negotiate his deportation.

Iraq
Seyed Khaleghi, 27, was ordered removed by an immigration judge in August 2011 after he pleaded guilty to a 2009 aggravated robbery. While facing state charges, he was out on bond, according to Franklin County records. He went to state prison in 2011 and was released to ICE custody at the Butler County jail in December 2016.

At least one of these from Somalia having entered the US by crossing the Rio Grande. Noted for future reference.
Where the heck is this?
They seem like bad hombres.
Ohio - my bad

All young men, right?
These folks are NOT covered by the Geneva Convention.
Time to deal with the situation.
And this is in just one county’s jail, in just one rather small American city!
I just copy and paste, I don’t proof read - must have been in a hurry when they posted the article.
I was thinking they had one more
Air drop them over Somalia.
The original article was not proofed, and I just got back from the dentist (too many drugs in me to proof read) :)
Strap parachutes on everyone of them and drop them into Somalia. If there is “no government” there to accept them perhaps they can start one of their own.
Syria
Mohamad Jabrini, 31, was ordered removed by an immigration judge in December 2016. He was arrested by federal authorities at the Brownsville, Texas port of entry in May 2016. ICE officials say they are not aware of any additional criminal history.
They're all just children! (well, they were someone's children at some point at least)
And now held in an OHIO jail. WTF?
One of these criminals is to be deported, but Somalia “has no government to accept him.” However, the so-called “judges” in WA and the Ninth Circuit think Somalia can vett people like this scum adequately before they arrive in the US to prey on US citizens. Shameful.
I always go the the Aloha Snackbar to get Doublemint gum.
Butler county is between Hamilton county (Cincinnati) and (Dayton) Montgomery county. It is overrun with illegals. I’ve been following the numbers for several years of the percentages of those being held for ICE in the Butler county jail. Of those recently booked, 7% are being held for ICE, 15% last week. The numbers generally are holding at around 14% with a peak of 28%. Clearly, many of them are not from Mexico or South America.
“Mohamad Jabrini, 31, was ordered removed by an immigration judge in December 2016. He was arrested by federal authorities at the Brownsville, Texas port of entry in May 2016. ICE officials say they are not aware of any additional criminal history.”
Here’s a question. Why do they have Jihadis who are caught in Texas, coming over the Mexican border, sent to Dayton Ohihio by ICE to be held?
