LOS ANGELES - The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said Wednesday it will not participate in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Warrant Service Officer Program.
The program allows for local authorities to arrest and temporarily detain immigrants in the United States illegally on behalf of the agency, regardless if the city is a so-called sanctuary city.
“As previously stated, the Sheriff’s Department will keep a line of separation between local law enforcement action and federal immigration policy,” Sheriff Alex Villanueva said in a statement. “One of the Department’s priorities is providing public safety for all of Los Angeles County’s residents, regardless of immigration status.”
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted in 2015 to remove federal immigration agents from county jails, but also wanted then-Sheriff Jim McDonnell to continue the department’s cooperation with ICE.

I for one will NEVER show ANY kind of respect towards any Sheriff in Los Angeles County, when they ask why I am being an asshole to them, I will whip out a COPY of my Wife’s Green Card that I spent a over a Year getting and spending $10,000 to get it LEGALLY!!!
America is a land of territories and colonies again. Washington DC cares less as long as they are the power.
No respect for the rule of law. That will work fine in the future. Glad I do not live there.
Misleading headline as they are not immigrants they are Invaders
Perhaps we should not allow the FBI to help them when they are in trouble.
They sure do like Fed money for some things.
You hit the nail on the head.. It is a BIG state. Very hard to get synergy to bring it back together to save.
I do hate leaving; I just couldn’t stand it anymore after living through two cities falling to illegals and dem’s (Burbank and Newhall before it was Santa Clarita).
