Homeland Security agents nab 154 Illegals in Ohio

July 16, 2006 in Border Security, Illegal Immigration

From THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Homeland Security agents took to Ohio streets the past week, arresting 154 undocumented immigrants.

The agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement offices in Boston, Philadelphia, Buffalo and Detroit came heavily armed and loaded with files and warrants for deportation.

They took in immigrants from 30 countries and every continent save Antarctica. Among those arrested, 82 were from Mexico, followed by 19 from El Salvador and seven from Mauritania.

The men and women had been caught entering the country illegally and were ordered to court but never showed or had been ordered deported but never left, authorities said. Twenty had been charged with crimes. One was a reputed member of the Mexican street gang MS13.

Remember These comments from President Bush;

This practice, called “catch and release,” is unacceptable, and we will end it.   Or how about Harry Reid blocking an ammendment to a Senate bill to do just that.  Today Law Enforcement was successful in rounding up 154 Illegals.. many with more serious crimes and at least one member of a viscious street gang. I would bet that a good percentage of these individuals will be released with just a “demand” to appear in court.
