U.S. Attorney Leah Foley declared her office's intent to investigate and potentially prosecute individuals who obstruct federal immigration enforcement actions, particularly related to ICE. This announcement comes amidst the Trump administration's efforts for widespread deportation. Foley indicated that even local officials could be implicated if they hinder these processes, despite existing sanctuary policies in Massachusetts that restrict local police from engaging in civil immigration enforcement. Foley plans to meet state and city officials to discuss collaboration while reaffirming support for law enforcement cooperation on violent criminal deportations.
Leah Foley stated that obstruction of federal immigration enforcement will be investigated, emphasizing that anyone impeding justice can face consequences.
Foley indicated her office would not hesitate to prosecute local officials who obstruct U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in deportation efforts.
