38 more arrests in Wisconsin Immigration Sweep

The Associated Press reports ICE arrested 38 immigrants in what are called “fugitive” sweeps conducted during the past five days in Wisconsin.  The term “fugivite” is strategically used to label persons who have failed to comply with a removal order against them. Typically, these raids occur in people’s homes, generally early in the morning.  It is typical that many others who are not the target of the arrest are also arrested during these raids. Here, for example, 22 of those arrested for immigration violations were not the target of the raids. For the story, click here.
