An illegal immigrant with a long rap sheet got a $145,000 parting gift from New York City taxpayers before he was deported, after city lawyers decided his civil rights had been violated when he was held too long on Rikers Island.

Federal rules allow local law enforcement to detain suspected illegal immigrants for 48 hours after their criminal cases are resolved, to give Immigration and Customs Enforcement a chance to pick them up and move them to federal facilities.

Former Brooklyn resident Cecil Harvey, 55 -- backed by an immigration-rights advocacy group -- argued that his rights were violated when he spent more than a month in a Rikers holding pen before being transferred to ICE.

Harvey was shipped to his native Barbados in October 2007; the city settled his civil suit late last year.

The landmark settlement has prompted the Correction Department to dump scores of illegal immigrants on the streets, since federal officials often fail to pick them up within the required two-day window.

Federal immigration agents have office space on Rikers Island, and the city allows them to interview roughly 4,000 inmates each year. They put a hold, or "detainer," on 3,200 of those inmates who they discover are illegals.

But ICE often fails to transfer those detainees within the required 48 hours of their criminal cases being resolved, multiple jail sources said.

"We just release them now," one high-ranking jail supervisor said. "It's ICE's problem to go find these guys."

Who says crime doesn't pay?
 
Which constituional amendment states that convicted criminal illegal aliens must be released within 48 hours?

You ok with this Ravi? We're not talking about those "honest hardworking undocumented". Dangerous people are sent to Rikers.

Who says you said anything about AZ?:lol:
 
Come on Huggy - do you really think ICE is going to send more agents to AZ to process all these people within 48 hours? Hell - there are 3200 just in one prison alone.

Holder doesn't have to sue. All they have to do is keep the status quo.

Open borders folks even love dem rapists and murderers. Outrageous.

I remember the days when everyone wanted to close the boarders because of fears from terrorists entering the country.

Now, thanks to Obama, fairness has become a great reason not to close them.

And liberals claim that this administration isn't soft on terrorism.

Once again the Obama policy of cleaning up the mess after the fact rears it's ugly head.

What was his response during the Democrat debates?

When asked what he would do to fight the war on terror here in America his answer was to make sure we had good first-responders [ready to mop up the blood].
