Same shit, different asshole

Whether nor not we Tennesseans agree with the spate of new laws which have recently gone into effect in Arizona, our state legislators have now added our state to the controversy. Previously, if a person was arrested for an offense, their immigration status has not been researched in depth by our jailers statewide. For example, in Chattanooga the documentation of inmates has been routinely referred to ICE (Immigration Customs Enforcement) for a check on whether or not the person is in the United States legally. As of July 1, 2010, this pattern will become mandatory for all jails throughout our state.

At the end of this legislative session, T.C.A., sec 40-7-123 was enacted. This new law requires all jailers to make a fax or other referral to ICE for any detainee whose documentation does not clearly establish that person's legal right to be in the United States.

Quote:
TCA § 40-7-123. When a person is arrested for any offense and is confined, for any period, in the jail of the county or any municipality, a reasonable effort to review documents in the possession of the prisoner shall be made to assess the citizenship status of the person so confined. If the keeper of the jail or other officer cannot determine the lawful status of the prisoner from the documents in the possession of the prisoner or if it is determined that the person is not lawfully present in the United States, pursuant to the federal Immigration and Naturalization Act, compiled in 8 U.S.C. § 1101 et seq., the keeper of the jail or other officer shall notify the United States department of homeland security by facsimile transmission or other appropriate means.

Too bad ICE refuses to pick up persons identified by police as illegal aliens, or exercises its Catch And Release Program.
