Cooperating jurisdictions simply run the names and fingerprints of all persons being booked after arrest through a federal database of illegal aliens.

| | It doesn’t matter what type of crime the suspect may have committed – even if the suspect turns out to be innocent. ICE statistics compiled last November indicate that just 10 percent of the 110,000 persons identified through Secure Communities were potential felons, but only a small percentage of these turned out to be guilty. In other words, this is not a “criminal alien” program at all. It’s a way of weeding out any illegal alien who is even suspected of a crime. | | It doesn’t matter what type of crime the suspect may have committed – even if the suspect turns out to be innocent.

Which means thousands of people could be wrongly detained, and even deported, under this program. | | And it’s not just illegal aliens who may suffer.
