New Jersey’s sanctuary state policy is under fire after State Police refused to take custody of an illegal alien escapee who attempted to surrender. The shocking incident unfolded after four illegal aliens broke out of the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark on June 12, prompting a federal manhunt.
New Jersey police officers are now barred from arresting individuals solely based on an “Outstanding Administrative Warrant” from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), under the state’s Immigrant Trust Directive. A recent internal email from New Jersey State Police Superintendent Col. Patrick J. Callahan clarified that contacting ICE using provided phone numbers is also prohibited for New Jersey State Police employees.
