@austinkocher@mastodon.social "Nine sheriff’s departments in the state currently have 287(g) agreements ... the agreements are used for detainers: If local police have a suspect in another crime who they learn is undocumented, they can hold that person for 48 hours to hand over to ICE." So, under current law, in those nine jurisdictions any local police who learns that a person is undocumented can accuse them of a crime, arrest them as a suspect, and deliver them to ICE within 48 hours. I wonder how often that has occurred and how many of them are really undocumented. Seems like a really good way to get rid of a pesky neighbor.
