City and country governments ignored federal “detainer” requests and released 142 suspected members of MS-13 and other criminal gangs in the eight months up to June 2017, says a report from the Department of Homeland Security to the Senate’s judiciary committee.
The gang release data is the agency’s most up-to-date, according to the agency, which delivered the answers in response to routine oversight questions by committee members.
The data does not cover any releases after June 19, 2017, when city governments escalated their opposition to the legal deportation of illegal migrants in their cities and counties. Currently, the Department of Justice is pressuring cities to cooperate with deportation efforts and is trying to cut federal police grants to cities who release criminals back into Americans’ neighborhoods.
The answers do not describe the crimes committed by gang members that caused their arrests.

Some Gov officials really need to be going to prison.
How is this not harboring a criminal? I say charge them with that and if they commit a crime the person that crime was committed against can also sue these cities as accessories to the crime.
Send in US Marshals and arrest the people that let this happen. It is a Federal crime according to the US Code 8 sec. 1324
Did they name the cities? Want to know where to avoid.
