NYC Ignored 440 Detainer Notices in 3 Months
By Preston Huennekens on June 4, 2018
In March 2013, New York City began ignoring detainer notices placed on criminal aliens by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The largest city in the United States is part of a metropolitan area with more than 1.15 million illegal aliens, according to the Pew Research Center.
ICE in New York reviewed three months-worth of detainer notices sent to the NYPD and to the N.Y. Department of Corrections. ICE was attempting to determine if there were any trends in the type of criminal aliens released from custody by New York City without notifying immigration authorities.
