Attorneys representing a group of Massachusetts taxpayers say the Plymouth County Sheriff s Department is engaged in an illegal agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to carry out immigration enforcement activities.
The lawsuit, filed Monday by Boston-based Lawyers for Civil Rights (LCR), said the department, under the leadership of Sheriff Joseph McDonald Jr., signed a contract with ICE to engage in arrests, detentions and interrogations of people suspected of being in the country without documentation. I think people should be, frankly, pretty disturbed, said Oren Nimni, a staff attorney at LCR. Local county sheriffs agreeing to enforce federal civil immigration law . these aren t things that we voted on and decided are OK. They re just agreements that county sheriffs undertook to sign because they wanted to, and they re using taxpayer money to do federal immigration enforcement.
