Discussion on ICE Detainers and Public Safety with Sheriff Wagner and Ms. Walters

Published | Video Starts at 03:54

The stories go on. Washington county, also in your state, illegal alien Alejandro Melando Hernandez was arrested for manslaughter in a second degree for killing somebody while driving recklessly. The Washington County ignored an ICE detainer, released [Alejandro Melando Hernandez] into the community and he is still at large today. Does that sound conducive to public safety, Sheriff? No, of course it doesn't. Let's go to Boston. April this year, Boston released an illegal alien charge of aggravated child rape rather than comply with an ICE detainer. (03:54–03:59)
