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)

    I’ll just wave my boner. I sure wish I could practice law in New Orleans. One thing kept me from passing the bar exam in the state of Mississippi. That thing is integrity.

      Still not sure if you’re serious, but using “boner” instead of “bono” as a legal term might have something to do with not passing the BAR.
