Those who commit dangerous crimes in our city, documented or not documented, should be held accountable and removed from our country. When I coordinate with ice, HSI and others is going after those who commit serious crimes. We took down a dangerous gang, Trinity Aragua, 27 gang members who were forcing undocumented women into prostitution, selling guns, shooting at individuals. They need to go. They need to serve their time. They need to be removed. And I made it clear we do not coordinate for civil enforcement. (1:04:48–1:05:01)
