An illegal al*en was detained by two ICE agents on Tuesday, June 24, inside the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. Courthouse, Baltimore City Sheriff Sam Cogen said.
Sheriff Cogen told WJZ an unidentified employee with the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services took it upon themselves to call ICE about someone scheduled to come to their office.
The sheriff believes that it falls out of line with their department duties.
This was sort of like a shocking incident, Cogen said. We never thought that we would have an employee of another state agency calling for immigration enforcement.
