As ICE expands its Colorado efforts, many without criminal records are caught in a wide net (www.cpr.org)

It’s impossible to know exactly how many, since Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, only releases names in select cases. But the number of detentions of people with clean or old criminal records includes two Mauritanians seeking asylum after claiming to have been enslaved or beaten by police in their home country and a Mexican man who has worked for the same market off of Tower Road since 2016 with not so much as a traffic ticket. Supporters say it also includes an outspoken activist from Mexico with an old and minor criminal history. She was later named as one of the most influential people in the United States but remains a thorn in the side for immigration authorities.

...

The immigrants interviewed by CPR News all have fates awaiting decisions by immigration judges, who are employees of the U.S. Department of Justice. Many of the new arrivals are in various stages of appeals and quests for asylum.

Remind me how Colorado is a border state again? Airports don't count.
