"Case by case amnesty, backdoor amnesty, DACA programs, and the Dream Act were pushed through by executive order," said Frederick County Sheriff Charles Jenkins. "Policy shifts by President Obama weakened and ruined Secure Communities, and did not allow action by ICE when Sheriffs and police departments ignored detainers, allowing criminal to be released back on the streets. In effect, criminal aliens that should have been deported have been allowed to remain and commit more serious crimes becoming violent offenders," he told the House Judiciary Committee probing the criminal impact of illegals in the United States. He was joined by family members of victims of illegal immigrant crime, a surging issue around the nation as Obama's policies allow more unauthorized aliens to leave jail and remain in the country. More from the Washington Examiner WATCH: Donald Rumsfeld delivers his favorite Winston Churchill quotes By Washington Examiner Staff 04/19/16 1:18 PM Frederick is north of Washington, D.C., but has become a haven for criminal "transnational" gangs, especially in high schools. Members of MS-13 and 18th Street gangs have become influential in the schools and county. "Transnational alien gangs are structured criminal enterprises involved in drug and human trafficking, crimes of violence over turf, retaliation, money laundering, and other serious crime. As these gangs are recruiting locally and increasing in number, so does the associated crime within communities," said Jenkins. He gave some details on the crimes by immigrant gangs in his county: There are over 75 active known validated transnational criminal gang members in Frederick County, many more suspected of gang affiliation. We also believe that MS- 13 and 18th Street alien gangs are recruiting, locally, in our schools, in the region, and out of country. Of the 52 validated criminal alien gang members identified since ..2008, 25 of the 52 (48%), were identified since late 2014. Poster Comment: The county has above average incomes and is only 7.3% Hispanic. This would not be happening if it were not for Obama and Open Borders. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
