Sanctuary Cities...

"I will avoid the politics of Sanctuary Cities, but I think its important to understand some of the core underlying issues and facts regarding unlawful presence in the United States for which state/local police are subject to.

Above all, state law enforcement is prohibited from enforcing federal immigration laws. State law enforcement is further prohibited from detaining an individual not suspected of a crime.

Contrary to belief, a person's unlawful presence in the United States is not a crime, it is a civil infraction.

The classification as a civil not criminal infraction is crucial: a person in the US unlawfully and subject to immigration removal [CIVIL] is not afforded the same due process protections, including right to counsel that a person charged with a crime would receive; mere unlawful presence is a civil infraction and one that is exclusive enforced by federal immigration enforcement officers

In addition. An individual convicted of a crime must be released upon servicing his or her punishment unless exigent, personalized circumstance permit holding that person. Thus, state police cannot legally hold an individually solely based on his or her suspicion of unlawful status."
