From an ICE report on 287 (g) results:

• Georgia – On Oct. 16, the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office 287(g) Program encountered a citizen of El Salvador charged with aggravated child molestation by sodomy, obscene contact with a child, use of computer service to seduce, solicit, lure or entice a child to commit an illegal act, and placed an immigration detainer and warrant on the subject. The subject entered the United States on an unknown date and location without inspection.

  ICE publishes monthly report on enforcement actions due to cooperative agreements

  Note: The incoming sheriffs in Gwinnett and cobb counties have promised the illegal alien lobby they will end the 287(g) agreements with ICE when they take office in January, 2021. We will try to track the consequences. We do not expect the same from the Associated Press or the liberal AJC.

  WASHINGTON – A Honduran national charged with three counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child and a Guatemalan national charged with carjacking, aggravated assault and battery are examples of the most egregious cases of detainers placed in October by local law enforcement officials with delegated 287(g) authority from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as detailed in the latest monthly report. The 287(g) program, authorized by Congress, allows local law enforcement agencies to participate as an active partner in identifying criminal aliens in their custody, and placing ICE detainers on these individuals.

  ICE’s 287(g) reports detail examples of enforcement actions made as a direct result of the cooperation agreements between state and local law enforcement partners and the federal agency.

   

  The October report highlights action taken in cases involving significant threats to public safety:

  • Georgia – On Oct. 16, the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office 287(g) Program encountered a citizen of El Salvador charged with aggravated child molestation by sodomy, obscene contact with a child, use of computer service to seduce, solicit, lure or entice a child to commit an illegal act, and placed an immigration detainer and warrant on the subject. The subject entered the United States on an unknown date and location without inspection.
  • Maryland – On Oct. 15, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office 287(g) Program encountered a citizen of Turkey sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for the conviction of rape 2nd degree and assault 2nd degree, and placed an immigration detainer and warrant on the subject. The subject entered the United States as a crewman and adjusted status to that of a lawful permanent resident.

  Under the 287(g) program, ICE has 77 jail enforcement model agreements in 21 states and 74 warrant service officer model agreements in 11 states.

  ICE does not require law enforcement agencies to participate in 287(g). In fact, law enforcement agencies must request to participate in the 287(g) program and enter into a memorandum of agreement that defines the scope, duration and limitations of the delegation of authority. It also sets forth the training requirements, the terms of ICE supervision, and requires the partnering law enforcement agency to follow U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and ICE policies when its designated immigration officers perform delegated immigration enforcement functions.

  The 287(g) program allows ICE to have a presence at local jails across the country. Through training and with oversight, local officers can screen those booked into local custody on criminal charges and process the immigration case for ICE supervisory review.

  The goal of 287(g) is to enhance public safety by identifying aliens, lodging immigration detainers, and initiating removal proceedings by issuing charging documents on criminal and removable aliens booked into the jail facility.

  Law enforcement agencies interested in becoming a partner under the 287(g) program are encouraged to email ERO287g@ice.dhs.gov for more information on how to apply. Here.
