Despite complaints about deportations of illegal immigrants who have not been convicted of crimes, the Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to renew an agreement with federal immigration officials to screen inmates' immigration status in Los Angeles County jails.
The supervisors first approved the controversial program on a 3-2 vote in January 2005. Since that time, sheriff's custody assistants have interviewed more than 52,000 inmates and Immigrations and Customs Enforcement has placed deportation holds on more than 20,000, county Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich said.
"Even though I was hesitant about this at first, this program has operated for the most part fairly effectively and eliminated many of the criminal aliens who prey on people," Supervisor Gloria Molina said. "At this point, I think it merits our support."
But immigrant advocates said they were disappointed by the board's vote because the program has resulted in the deportation of many immigrants who have not been convicted of any crimes.
"We submitted evidence to the supervisors that this program is deporting individuals who have not been convicted of a crime," said Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles. "What we've found is a lot of individuals were turned over to ICE for infractions and misdemeanors, like driving without a license or vending without a license."
Gladys Limon, a staff attorney with the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, said the vote will continue to create a rift between law enforcement officials and local communities.
"That relationship, trust and confidence is critical to the success of law enforcement generally and for the protection and safety of our communities," Limon said.
The supervisors' vote to renew the agreement came after ICE asked agencies across the nation to sign revised agreements that improve oversight and management of the program. Under the agreement with ICE, deputies question inmates about their immigration status and refer those about to be released to ICE for possible deportation.
A Police Assessment Resource Center study found 28 percent of those referred to ICE had been charged with misdemeanors or infractions, such as joy-riding, fare evasion or driving without a license.

"There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people." --Theodore Roosevelt
"This nation is in danger of becoming a Third World nightmare with all the corruption, disease, illiteracy, violence and balkanization known all over the world. We need a 10-year moratorium on all immigration to catch our collective breath and we need deportation of over 10 million illegal aliens in a slow and orderly fashion." --Ed Garrison
“The 1987 amnesty was a failure; rather than reducing illegal immigration, it led to an increase,” FAIR stated. “Any new amnesty measure will further weaken respect for our immigration laws. Therefore, all amnesty measures must be defeated.” --Frosty Wooldridge
