Cops in Scottsdale, Ariz., Now Routinely Ask Suspects for Proof of Citizenship

Police in suburban Scottsdale have begun routinely asking for proof of citizenship from every suspect they arrest and turning those who are in this country illegally over to federal immigration officials.



The procedure was started Oct. 15, a result of the September killing of Phoenix police officer Nick Erfle by an illegal immigrant, Erik Jovani Martinez.

Scottsdale police had arrested Martinez on a misdemeanor charge 16 months earlier but they released him then because they didn't know he was an illegal immigrant who had been twice deported.

Erfle's killing "caused us to look at what were asking suspects," Scottsdale police Sgt. Mark Clark said. "If we arrest someone and then find that we called ICE (Customs and Immigration Enforcement) and they put a hold on them, then we know they have been deported and are back again."

WTF?

[enfield collector]

10. Fuck that, I am an American whether or not I transgress where the law is concerned.

[-..__...]

5. Are they asking for proof of citizenship...

after they make a lawful arrest, or do they also ask any person who is being questioned, stopped, investigated
before they're arrested and taken into custody?

If it's the former... then I have no problem with it.

If it's the latter... then it's total bullshit.

6. The link is there. Should answer your question.

from every suspect they "arrest"

[-..__...]

11. I read that.

I'm curious if they're also asking for proof of citizenship anytime before an arrest and/or anyone whom is simply being questioned
during a routine stop or investigation.

12. Well those snottsdale cops are pretty stupid. Busted for their police radio transmissions of NIANNZ

The "Nword in a no Nword zone." I'd say they discriminate a bit in Snottsdale.

Chimpy just wipes his ass with the Constitution, and Americans sit there and take it.

By the time >50% of America wakes up, it'll be too late.
