While the community on one hand is somewhat relieved that you do see criminals being arrested according to officials I spoke with today on the other hand there is concern about how far these operations are truly going and what the end result will be. I have had some conversations with people that have expressed that they didn’t know it was going to be like this. Male bondsman Mario Garza and Luluax Sergita both live and work in Houston’s east end. They spoke today about how federal agencies continue to be relentless in going after undocumented residents in the greater Houston area.
Greater Houston LULAC is viewing that this is a an overreach of tactics and is harming our community in the long run.
This comes after a recent federal operation nabbed more than 1,500 criminals including gang members, sexual predators, and convicted felons. If law enforcement is is arresting wanted criminals, uh, you know, that’s good for our communities, you know, you know, period. What Wesley Whittig of the Fort County District Attorney’s Office told us is exactly what Lita and Garza said as well. Getting violent criminals off the streets is a good thing for any community. But there are challenges.
One being crimes in the Latino community not being reported because of concerns of potential deportation. The other is true justice. If uh immigration is is taking folks who are wanted locally out, then it does reduce the pressure on the system.
However, we can’t always get justice for our victims when when people are removed. If they take them directly to the detention center, then they don’t face any justice here.
They get deported. I did speak with one district attorney here in the Houston area who told me that he does know of a case in which there was no resolution at the end of the day because the individual was deported. However, that case was a misdemeanor in the East End. More udas, keep your C2.
