287(g) means that law enforcement officers could turn over illegal alien criminals to ICE.
Illegal alien criminals quickly found out that McFadden was their best friend.
There’s no way to even begin to quantify the impact of numbers like that on area crime.
Santos, an illegal alien, shot a man during an attempted robbery. He was being held under 287(g) until McFadden came in and set him loose. Now he’s back on the street with nothing more than an ankle bracelet between him and his victim.
But ICE is stepping in to arrest the illegal alien criminals that McFadden won't.
Gallagher says 287(g) changes led to release of a person who they say, after being freed, committed an armed robbery in Mecklenburg County.
His office sent out a statement in response to the comments made by Gallagher that mentions the Sheriff’s deep commitment to keeping the community safe.
That's not ICE's job. It's McFadden's job, which he appears to be unfit for.
