Should have been a good monitoring opportunity.  Anyone hear anything?


MIAMI --

Immigration officials arrested dozens of foreign nationals with criminal
records last week in a five-day operation in Florida.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said 93 immigrants with
criminal records and two other people were arrested during the investigation
by the Joint Criminal Alien Removal Taskforce, which searches for foreign
citizens with convictions for drug trafficking offenses, violent crimes and
sex offenses. Of the 95 arrests, 25 were made in Miami-Dade, eight were made
in Broward and 13 were made in Palm Beach County.

Of the two people arrested who did not have criminal records, one was a man
in Tampa who officials said illegally re-entered the U.S. after deportation.
Officials said the second was a woman with an outstanding order of
deportation.

The immigrants came from 22 different countries. All face deportation.
