Sheriff: ICE Forced to Quick-Release Migrant Families in Arizona
Numbers USA ^ | 10/18/2018 | NumbersUSA staff

ICE told Arizona Sheriffs it has run out of detention space to handle the number of migrants illegally crossing the border and presenting themselves at ports of entry. This lack of housing and the Flores Settlement’s 20-day release requirement forced ICE to release a large number of “family units" in Arizona all at once.

Yuma County Sheriff Leon Wilmot told Fox News, “ICE hasn’t been able to keep up with individuals coming up the border from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, because they’re overwhelmed. They’re releasing them out of the front door of their facilities…Each of our communities are going to be faced with this crisis and one thing sheriffs have said is that what goes on on the border won't stay at the border, it's throughout the U.S.”

As of October 15th, ICE began releasing family units without approved “post-release plans.”

ICE released about 800 family members in Arizona last week and 200 in Yuma alone. With a population just over 200,000, Yuma has far fewer services to assist the families. Those released to Phoenix and Tucson typically find more help but the large numbers strained their ability to cope.

this one will hit SCOTUS for sure and should set new precedent.

The Ninth court of appeals has already ruled against, big surprise, this law in Kalifornia.

The trouble is the Democrats passed laws governing how “Asylum seekers” are to be handled. Obama was the first president that could make his own laws and not be challenged by Congress. I think Pres. Trump should do the same thing and pass some executive orders and ship all illegals back to their own country and continue to do so until the matter is resolved by the Supreme Court.

When the hell will they ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT Trump’s new agreement with Mexico to turn Central American illegal migrants back to Mexico instead of the “housing or release” bullcrap?

Obama separated children from their supposed parents. But when the process was continued under Trump, the media a d democrats acted like it was all his idea and a judge ruled that they have to house the families together. So their running out of housing.

Some will be released into Mexico. Then it will be up to U.S. to stop them here, and send them back into Mexico.

I saw one of the invaders pleading with Mexico to let him in, promising that he wasn’t going to stay in Mexico.
