News We Can Use
Well, at least somebody has our backs!!!
"Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) this week released a letter from U.S. Immigration and Customs Reform that lists the zip codes where ICE has released dozens of illegal immigrants who have been convicted of a homicide-related” offense.
Grassley asked ICE back in June for more information about where these immigrants were released. Earlier this month, Grassley got a letter back saying 169 immigrants with a “homicide-related conviction” were released in 2013, and 131 of them were issued a final order of removal.
The 169 immigrants were part of a larger group of 36,000 that were released from detention in 2013. ICE’s letter lists the zip codes that are “associated” with the former detainees with “homicide-related” convictions. Grassley had asked for the zip code of each convict’s last known address.
The letter from ICE’s Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary, Thomas Winkowski, said he is putting in place “new procedures” to require review by a superior before ICE releases “potentially dangerous individuals.”
But Grassley said that’s not enough, and that the public needs to know when and where these immigrants are released."
