GAINESVILLE, Mo. -- Its a hot button issue in the Ozarks and nation. Illegal immigration has some asking, 'is enough being done.'

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) was created under the Department of Homeland Security to ensure our nation's safety.

KY3 found answering the simple question of 'who can be arrested?' is complicated.

"Imagine my head hurting," Ozark County Sheriff Raymond Pace said. "I had five right off the border, still had pesos, looking for a Bank of America to cash in their pesos and get American dollars."

Sheriff Pace brought undocumented immigrants to his office and called I.C.E. to find out what to do with his visitors.

but-—you know the constraints placed on ICE, INS, DHS, Border Patrol are not the doing of the current administration. This is a MAJOR problem in this country, but our leadership refuses to deal with it. GW was just as bad about fostering illegal immigration as the present Doofus in Chief. The way both parties, and all the Congress critters look at it, with the birth rates of these people flooding across our border, (and coming in from the M.E. and Indonesia) they dare not alienate the potential voter block. Short of tar and feathers, I don’t know what to do, they are all guilty.

It appears I.C.E. wants the local sheriff to drive illegal aliens to the Bank of America to exchange Pesos for Dollars.

In 2009, Secretary Napolitano stripped Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff's Department of its federal authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status.

Federal authorities wish to do away with local cops enforcing our nation's immigration laws.

A federal grand jury in Arizona began hearing a federal prosecutor’s allegations that the popular Maricopa County sheriff, Joe Arpaio abused his authority

Buff would have bent one of his big flashlights over their head before he took them off to jail!

On the serious side, with all the PC crap today, Buff would never have made it.
