The nine hours that Texas was allowed to arrest and deport migrants who illegally enter the U.S. provided a glimpse at what sort of obstacles law enforcement agencies in the state face
During the nine hours that Texas was allowed to arrest and deport people who illegally enter the U.S., Sheriff Thaddeus Cleveland never changed his tactics with migrants in his remote border county. Not because he opposes the idea. There's just no practical way to do it, said the sheriff of Terrell County, where last year an average of about 10 people each day were caught crossing the border from Mexico.
Abbott reminded a crowd at a conservative policy conference in Austin on Wednesday that even with SB4 on hold, Texas could still arrest migrants who trespass on private property. That more limited operation began in 2021. Like many sheriffs and law enforcement officers who say they support the new law, Cleveland faces serious logistical problems in how to implement it.
