How can Cook County jail ban federal immigration officers haven’t been permitted to enter the premises?

  • An official with Immigration and Customs Enforcement told The Daily Caller that ICE agents are no longer allowed in Cook County jail, and haven’t been permitted to enter the premises since the beginning of last summer. That shocking revelation comes as local and national officials deal with the aftermath of a vehicular homicide case involving a criminal alien released instead of being turned over to federal authorities for deportation. Saul Chavez, an illegal alien who already has a drunk driving conviction, has fled to avoid facing that felony charge. A controversial Cook County ordinance, passed in September 2011, has precluded Cook County from complying with ICE detainers, procedures that allow the federal agency to pick up municipal inmates who would otherwise be released. ICE placed a detainer on Chavez, but Cook County ignored it because of the new law. According to an ICE official who spoke to TheDC on condition of anonymity, ICE agents are also no longer allowed inside Cook County jail. “We can’t interview suspects to determine if they should be flagged by ICE,” he official said, also pointing out that the jail had already been gradually eroding ICE agents’ privileges before excluding them from the premises altogether. Frank Bilecki, a spokesperson for Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, confirmed that ICE agents no longer have access to the jail, claiming in an email that the new ordinance requires it.

  • Answer:

    First, Cook County is a subdivision of STATE government. State and federal law enforcement operate in two separate systems. This is why we have entirely different court systems in which one person can be tried for the same criminal offense in two systems. Furthermore, the 10th Amendment gives states' rights. The Constitution does not say states must allow federal officers into local jails. There may be case law that addresses this issue, but Cook County is challenging this case law. Cook County has the right to do that. Cook County is not telling illegals ICE won't get them. Cook County cannot tell ICE how to enforce immigration statutes. ICE has other options. Cook County is also just one of over 3000 counties, although it is a more populated one. Cook County also does not tell illegals they are friends. This is absurd. Cook County is doing what it does because ICE and Homeland Security don't want to reimburse the counties a fair amount of the cost required to hold illegals on detainers issued by ICE. The federal government wants things done without paying for it. What else is new. Besides, Cook County is holding these illegal aliens as inmates for other offenses. If they were friends, why would Cook County hold them at all? Don't get confused by the distorted comments of others on this issue.

The Cook County Commissioners are acting outside the law by passing an ordinance that requires violation of federal law.Wow... America IS the greatest country in the world! That is,...If you are here illegally. Especially if you are a criminal illegal alien, it doesn't get any better than America! I guess Cook county has its own system of justice and it is separate from the rest of the country.
