While some Utah politicos are incensed by a recent denial issued by federal immigration enforcers to cross-train Davis County sheriff's deputies, the Department of Homeland Security says it has a better option for the agency to deal with undocumented criminals. Davis County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Bob Yeaman said Monday that the Davis County jail processes about 10 prisoners a month who are unable to document their citizenship, and hoped that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement training, which it applied for last October, would streamline the process.
It took about two weeks, but Sheriff Joe has figured out where he got the list of criteria to detain illegal immigrants. The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office released a statement earlier this week that noted he will continue to use a set of indicators - including an inability to speak English, unusual appearance and the location where people are stopped - to detain people who might be illegal immigrants. The media release sent out on Oct. 21 stated that the source of those indicators was actually a training manual used by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents - not federal law, as he had previously said.

Local jailers are leading the way in getting illegal immigrants in area lock-ups out of the country. Deputies working at San Bernardino and Riverside county jails have received special training through a partnership with Immigration and Customs Enforcement - leaving the federal agents free from having to track down criminals once they've been released from jail.
The incarceration arms of two Utah sheriff offices will soon play an active role in immigration enforcement. Weber and Washington counties have entered into agreements with Immigration and Customs Enforcement for some corrections officers to receive federal training on immigration enforcement.
LITTLE ROCK - Arkansas State Police troopers will be trained by federal agents to detect forged identity documents carried by suspected illegal immigrants, but will not have the power to arrest them for being in the country, officials said Tuesday. Troopers in the field, radio operators and those at driver's licensing stations will receive training from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as part of an agreement signed Monday. If troopers find a suspected forgery, they could call federal agents at ICE's Law Enforcement Support Center who can verify documents and check a suspect's immigration status.
The Herndon Town Council tonight is expected to discuss a proposal to seek federal immigration training that would allow local police to question and detain suspected illegal aliens. Herndon Police Chief Toussaint E. Summers Jr. last week asked the council to team with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for the five-week training, which also would allow local officers to work with federal agents on immigration cases.
The Virginia State Crime Commission yesterday approved a measure calling on Gov. Tim Kaine to pursue federal training for Virginia State Police officers that would allow them to enforce immigration laws in some circumstances. Mr. Kaine, a Democrat, has long opposed state police entering into the 287(g) training with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials. His spokesman, Gordon Hickey, yesterday said the governor thinks "there is no reason the state should step in when the federal government does not do its job.
WASHINGTON, July 21 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Judicial Watch, the public interest group that fights government corruption, announced today that it has uncovered government documents that indicate local law enforcement officers can be effective in enforcing our nation's immigration laws. Judicial Watch obtained the documents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) as part of its continuing investigation of the federal government's failure to secure the borders. According to the documents, the 1996 Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) "authorized the Secretary of Homeland Security to enter into a written agreement to delegate the authority of enforcing federal immigration laws to a state or political sub-division of a state." Through Immigrat...

The Herndon Town Council voted 6-1 Tuesday to enroll local officers in a federal program that would allow them to question and detain suspected illegal aliens. The resolution directs Town Manager Stephen F. Owen to send a letter of interest to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) about its five-week training, which would allow police to begin the paperwork for potential deportation of illegal aliens until ICE can take them into custody.
