Trump doubles down on hiring unqualified ICE agents
Trumps Frantic ICE Hiring Blitz Hit by Jaw-Dropping Revelations About New Recruits
ICE recruits brought in to staff the presidents frenzied deportation drive include a man who lasted just three weeks as a police officer, another with two bankruptcies behind him, and a third accused of lying to bring charges against an innocent woman.
The agency hired those officials, along with 12,000 others, using $75 billion approved by Congress last year to fund President Donald Trumps nationwide immigration crackdown, according to an Associated Press investigation published Friday.
Scrutiny continues to mount over the vetting process for new recruits, given the frenzied pace at which ICE has expanded its workforce to meet White House demands and amid repeated allegations of excessive force leveled against Homeland Security officialsincluding the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good, both American citizens, in Minnesota in January.
If youre hiring hundreds or thousands of people, even with the best of background processes, there are going to be outliers, Marshall Jones, a Florida Institute of Technology expert on police recruitment, told the outlet. The question is, are these normal outliers from human beings doing things, or is there a systemic challenge in properly vetting folks if there are issues?
