Meet Francisco Sanchez. Illegal immegrant from Mexico. He was captured and deported five times but still made it back into the United States. He has seven prior felony convictions, four involving narcoticcs.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement had him in custody last March but they turned him over to the San Francisco police for an outstanding drug warrant.
From FOX News:
Man arrested in connection with San Francisco killing had been deported several times, officials say
The man arrested in connection with the seemingly random killing of a woman who was out for a stroll with her father along the San Francisco waterfront is an illegal immigrant who previously had been deported five times, federal immigration officials say.
Further, Immigration and Customs Enforcement says San Francisco had him in their custody earlier this year but failed to notify ICE when he was released.
"DHS records indicate ICE lodged an immigration detainer on the subject at that time, requesting notification prior to his release so ICE officers could make arrangements to take custody. The detainer was not honored," ICE said in a statement Friday afternoon.
A bit more:
ICE briefly had him in their custody in March after he had served his latest sentence for "felony re-entry," but turned him over to San Francisco police on an outstanding drug warrant. At this time, ICE issued the detainer -- effectively asking that he be turned back over to ICE when San Francisco was finished with him.
But ICE was not notified. The incident is sure to renew criticism of San Francisco's sanctuary city policies.
"Here's a jurisdiction that's not even honoring our detainer for someone who clearly is an egregious offender," an ICE official told FoxNews.com.
I hope that her family sues the city for all it has. The idea of giving someone like this "sanctuary" is unreal.
