Antifar 08/23/19 8:17:37 AM #1:	https://www.aclu.org/blog/racial-justice/race-and-criminal-justice/louisiana-parish-jailed-us-citizen-being-latinx-were Ramon Torres had been a U.S. citizen for nearly ten years when he was detained for four days on an immigration hold despite having a U.S. passport, a Louisiana drivers license, and a Social Security card, and despite that fact that a court ordered his release. Torres ordeal began in August 2018, when he was pulled over and arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated. Torres, a naturalized U.S. citizen since 2009, was carrying multiple forms of identification, including his drivers license and other security credentials. Torres was booked at the Ascension Parish Jail, and the next day the Parish Court ordered his release. But Torres wasnt released. Instead, the Ascension Parish Sheriffs Office placed an immigration hold on Torres on the suspicion that he was unlawfully present in the United States. The basis for this suspicion? He had a Latinx name and brown skin. Staff at the sheriffs office explained that they had a policy of detaining all Latinx people for immigration review. When his friends and family tried to intervene and provide additional documentation proving that Torres is a U.S. citizen, officials in the sheriffs office still didnt budge. Torres spent four days in jail before a lawyers involvement finally secured his release. This was a flagrant violation of Torres constitutional rights, and this week the ACLU of Louisiana sued on his behalf. Racial profiling is illegal, unconstitutional, and deeply harmful to families and communities diverting scarce resources away from pressing public safety priorities. What happened to Torres is inexcusable and antithetical to our most cherished American values. --- kin to all that throbs <cite>Antifar posted [p:926440447] in Louisiana ...

treewojima 08/24/19 8:41:23 PM #49:	They do this in my state/county too. When I was arrested about 10 years ago I did a video arraignment with a bunch of other inmates, and every single Hispanic person had bail withheld because of an ICE detainer, regardless of their charges. It's astounding that it's legal (or maybe it's not but nobody challenges it). <cite>treewojima posted [p:926504670] in Louisiana ... [t:77958701]...</cite> <quote>They do this in my state/county too.
