According to an AP article on sfgate.com: “Immigration Judge A. Ashley Tabaddor ruled last week that federal agents illegally detained Gregorio Perez in last year’s raid on Micro Solutions Enterprises because they did not have a warrant for his arrest or ‘reasonable suspicion’ he was in the country illegally.”
Agents who arrest undocumented aliens should be held to a standard of either “reasonable suspicion” or a warrant. Such a standard would help prevent racial profiling and add some respect and humanity to the removal process. Hopefully, the era of unlawful arrests and the Sheriff Arpaio-style of embarassing and dehumanizing individuals for personal gain will come to an end in the near future.
