The New Orleans Police Department responded to the DHS statement with its own statement following the arrest of Temah:
Recent statements regarding Recruit Larry Temah are misleading. The New Orleans Police Department verified Mr. Temah’s employment eligibility through ICE’s E-Verify system prior to hiring and was never notified of any ICE detainer. New Orleans is not a sanctuary city, and NOPD does not control jail operations or detainer decisions, which fall under the Sheriff’s Office. Any claim that NOPD knowingly violated the law is false.
Officer Reese Harper (NOPD Director of Communications)
You know what, in person I have a hard time being nasty even to people who are acting shitty… but this is the internet and I have a cold too so I’m feeling very detatched so fuck it, I look forward to the first full on shootout between cops and ice, fuck em both.
No matter who loses, we’ll all win
Type vibes.
I literally said this yesterday, after watching the Police intervene in the illegal arrest of a Meidas reporter.
I’m waiting for a shoot out between ICE and Police and scrolled and found this article.
I love you like this. Hope you get better soon though. But keep that fire!
