The Washington Times<\/a> reports that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Bureau has had to start rounding up some of the detainees that they released during their preparation for the sequestration thingie. It seems that some of the gentle souls happened to be “level one” offenders;<\/p>\n

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director John Morton testified to Congress that his agency released 10 \u201clevel one\u201d offenders, and has gone out and apprehended four of them. He said the other six are nonviolent.<\/p>\n

Mr. Morton also acknowledged that overall, 2,228 immigrants were released \u2014 far more than the several hundred the agency had initially acknowledged. Of those, 629 had criminal records, though Mr. Morton said they were low-level offenders.<\/p>\n

The releases have drawn a stern rebuke from Republicans, who said it showed mismanaged priorities. They also said ICE\u2019s concession that it released far more immigrants than it first acknowledged dents the agency\u2019s credibility.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Whatever. As long as everyone gets to feel the pain of sequester, what difference does a couple more criminals on the streets matter? It’s all the Republicans’ fault anyway. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
