California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation staff routinely report people in their custody to ICE, according to public records obtained by the ACLU and released in a new report.
On Aug. 18, 2022, a records department employee at the California Correctional Center emailed federal immigration authorities a list of people they believed could be subject to deportation. The list noted that most of those named were born outside the U.S. or had an unknown birthplace. But 12 people were listed as having been born in this country.
records from August and September 2022, during which the agency transferred more than 200 people from CDCR facilities to immigration custody.The groups detailed the results in a report to be published Tuesday that they say describes the practices employed by the CDCR in cooperation with ICE and provides examples of alleged actions by department staff that are discriminatory, including against immigrants.
Records from the report appear to show some prisons have an “ICE Desk” with staff designated to facilitate referrals of incarcerated people to federal authorities.According to the report, if a CDCR official perceives someone to be foreign born, that triggers a “potential” hold at intake — an internal designation established in the CDCR’s operations manual.
