The New Orleans Police Department responded to the DHS statement with its own statement following the arrest of Temah:
Recent statements regarding Recruit Larry Temah are misleading. The New Orleans Police Department verified Mr. Temah’s employment eligibility through ICE’s E-Verify system prior to hiring and was never notified of any ICE detainer. New Orleans is not a sanctuary city, and NOPD does not control jail operations or detainer decisions, which fall under the Sheriff’s Office. Any claim that NOPD knowingly violated the law is false.
Officer Reese Harper (NOPD Director of Communications)
In case you fail to read the article or statement above, they claim to have used ICEs own system to verify his eligibility. the incompetency has no bounds.
It’s not incompetency. Incompetency assumes you tried in good faith to do something the right way.
What ICE is doing is just trying to piss people off enough to be scared for their lives. They ARE accomplishing that task.
Did they cross reference this guys identity, and verify he was a citizen? No, but that was never their intent.
They aren’t incompetent. They’re malicious. Intentionally evil.
Well going for a cop isn’t going to help them is it? If the cops and ICE end up shooting each other I think most people will consider that to be a fairly acceptable outcome.
And likely part of the grand plan. This only stokes the flames of civil unrest so some authoritarian fascist can blindly enact marshall law
They held of the skin color swatch and determined he was in the “Arrest and deport” range. That’s all they feel they need.
What ICE is doing is convincing people they are going to die. That makes some run and hide and other prepare to live.
thier eligibity is just a skin color card, like in family guy how to identify non-whites.
Funny, cause there literally isn’t a database of citizens so whatever they are using is some janky homegrown palantir bullshit.
