Over 150 illegal migrants were rounded up in the operation, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and half of them had criminal convictions, according to ICE.
One arrest was of a 38-year-old Mexican Sureno gang member who had been deported four previous times. Others had been convicted of domestic violence, drunken driving, and weapons possession.
According to ICE, 864 criminals are being sought and remain at large in the Oakland and San Francisco region.
Mayor Schaaf issued a very public warning to the community that ICE was making arrests, which is a violation of the law and puts ICE officers in grave danger. Her reasoning is that she wanted to make the criminals aware the law was coming and to take needed steps to protect themselves from them.
By allowing criminals to escape, Schaaf also put her community at risk, and Thomas Homan, top ICE official, isn't happy about it.
"I have to believe that some of them were able to elude us thanks to the mayor's irresponsible decision," Homan said.
One of the scumwafers who got away was a Honduran who was arrested for transporting cocaine and for having sex with a child under 16. Another was a Mexican with drug and firearms convictions. Both had been in police custody before but authorities refused to hold them for pickup by ICE, the agency said. Both had been deported multiple times but were able to sneak back into the country as there is no wall to stop them.
Schaaf said she had an obligation to protect the city's residents, "particularly our most vulnerable." Evidently she hasn't a clue who the most vulnerable are--the unarmed citizens, children and elderly who frequently fall victim to these criminals.
Of course, Schaaf is a Democrat.
Hopefully nobody will fall victim to these criminals and that Ms. Schaaf will be tried criminally for her interfering with law enforcement.
