“LEO has to have probable cause that the person committed an act/crime that is serious enough they would be deported for it.”
So being in the country illegally is not a deportable offense? As I suggested earlier, I really doubt there would be a great deal of controversy if this new law applied only to individuals arrested for breaking some other law. Indeed, it would surprise me if other states didn’t routinely check the immigration status of their arrestees and deport those who were here illegally rather than squander scarce LE resources in prosecuting them and/or housing them in jail.
As I understand it truly law-abiding illegals have little or nothing to fear from this law. If illegals commit other offenses or crimes that bring them to the attention of LEO then the fact that they are also here illegally becomes an issue.
