Part 4/7:
The case of a specific alleged gang member demonstrates some of the complications inherent in the current immigration system. A suspected member of the TDA gang was ordered to be deported in 2022 but was arrested and released multiple times in Chicago due to sanctuary city policies that limited cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
This particular incident raises questions about the effectiveness of local jurisdictions in handling individuals who pose a threat to public safety, as the suspect was later charged with serious crimes, including kidnapping and sexual assault.
