Minnesota Department of Corrections Commissioner Paul Schnell discusses cooperation between local officials and ICE, highlighting the need for judicial orders to address legal liabilities for sheriffs holding individuals beyond their appointed time.
On Friday’s broadcast of NPR’s “All Things Considered,” Minnesota Department of Corrections Commissioner Paul Schnell discussed cooperation between local sheriffs and immigration officials and said that “having judicial orders or detainers or holds that are signed by a judge would address this issue.
But, to date, we have not seen a willingness on the part of DHS to pursue those.” Co-host Juana Summers asked, “I do want to ask you about something that Tom Homan said yesterday. He’s, of course, the federal Border Czar newly in charge of operations here. He said that a drawdown of operations here in the state of Minnesota will only happen with the cooperation of local officials. And one thing that he specifically honed in on was that local jails grant access to ICE in order to seize undocumented immigrants. And I wonder, how does that demand that Tom Homan made square with the existing cooperation that you all have already with federal immigration authorities?” Schnell answered, “So, first and foremost, I think the prison system is easier, because we have a much more stable population. But sheriffs are in a very difficult position, because they face legal liability if they hold people beyond their appointed time. And having judicial orders or detainers or holds that are signed by a judge would address this issue. But, to date, we have not seen a willingness on the part of DHS to pursue those.”'Charlie Kirk Show' Producer Andrew Kolvet Reveals Charlie's Top 3 LessonsBreitbart Fight Club Exclusive with 'Invisible Coup' Author Peter SchweizerNolte: Disgraced Former CNN Anchor Don Lemon Arrested for Church Riot Nolte: ‘Melania’ Humiliates Media, Exceeds Expectations with Best Documentary Box Office Opening in Decade Nolte: Rotten Tomatoes — Audiences Rave for ‘Melania’ with 98% Rating While Bitter Critics Try to Destroy It Former Ben & Jerry’s Cofounder Debuts ‘Maxi Hearts of Minneapolis’ Ice Cream Honoring Renee Good, Alex PrettiAn ‘Invisible Coup’ Is Underway in America: Ask the Man Behind the #1 NYT Best-Selling Blockbuster in a February 5 Fight Club ExclusiveNBA Star Draymond Green Blasts ‘Caucasian’ Ref: ‘As a Black Man in America, Don’t Put Your Hand in My Face’Exclusive—Fred Fleitz: We Must Stop China from Stealing Our Military Secrets
