Despite arrests, illegal immigrants remain free

In April 2005, a state trooper pulled over a white van that was
erratically maneuvering on the Pennsylvania Turnpike near New Stanton,
Westmoreland County. Inside, he found a skittish driver.
Packed into the vehicle were 19 illegal aliens, including the driver,
Armando Lagunas-Suazo of Mexico.
A month earlier, the Pittsburgh office of Immigrations and Customs
Enforcement was sharply criticized after its agents refused to drive to
Somerset County to take a group of illegal aliens into custody because
they felt the snow-covered roads were too slippery.
Police wound up letting those aliens go.
The van driven by Lagunas-Suazo was the third vehicle caught on Western
Pennsylvania highways carrying illegal aliens in one weekend. This time,
immigration agents headed to each scene to make arrests. Forty-four
people were taken into custody.
Rich Boronyak, resident agent-in-charge in Pittsburgh, issued a rare
news release boasting of the arrests and praising state police for their
work.
"The Pennsylvania State Police and the local police departments have
been instrumental in identifying large groups of illegal aliens
transiting the corridor in unsafe vehicles, in vehicles being improperly
operated, or in vehicles operated by unqualified and uninsured drivers,"
Boronyak said. "We greatly appreciate anything the troopers and officers
can do to save lives."
More than a year later, only three of those 44 people have left the
United States.

Is anyone still waving the flag for a government who cannot even deport
invaders?
