This issue has been talked about for some time on the Yahoo Groups associated with border issues, but no one seems to be able to come up with the document that proves the orders were given. Until that document is made public, this story will be nothing more than an allegation and the legitimate press will not touch it.

But I would like to see the document found and shown on the air, and then watch the heads begin to roll.

Any reasonably smart bureaucrat will not put such an order in writing or it will be in the form of bureaucratize that talks about efficiencies, streamlining, regularizing procedures, etc. that can be construed as meaning anything, but the ICE agents know they mean take minimal effort and do paperwork rather than apprehend illegals.

This sounds like an opportunity for an oversight hearing that won't be able to prove the allegation, but could beat up the ICE management.

Most likely they received verbal orders. The Bureaucrats/Politicians who do contrary acts against the law know it's stupid to put it in writing.

There's never going to be a "document". These are verbal orders. And a dozen Agents isn't good enough for you? Are you saying Jerry Seper and Ben Anderson are just making this up?

As for legitimate press, what do you think The Washington Times is? Would CBS somehow be more legitimate?
