Now that Trump is in office, and the political tides have shifted, our esteemed County Sheriff– Danny Rogers– is going out of his way to deny that Guilford is a sanctuary county. The Rhino Times provides the details. (Rogers, of course, is part of the democratic socialist party that controls Guilford County).
Rogers is dissembling. He is a sanctuary county sheriff, just as BJ Barnes was.
He is being disingenuous. When you refuse to cooperate fully with ICE’s 287(g) program, you are making an intentional decision that has the effect of protecting criminal illegals.
I thought that the legislature passed a law that commanded NC Sheriffs to comply with ICE detainers.
Your comment, Fred, sounded right to me so I did some searching. I am not sure if I am getting the full picture. At least one law was passed, but I don’t know if it constrains county sheriffs.
