C.A.P.S. Calls on California to Investigate San Francisco's Protection of Drug
Dealers from Prosecution
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., July 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Californians for
Population Stabilization (CAPS) requested Tuesday that Governor Schwarzenegger
and the California Attorney General investigate the City of San Francisco over
the recent reports that San Francisco juvenile probation officials are
protecting Hondurans caught dealing crack cocaine from federal prosecution by
flying them out of the country or housing them in San Bernardino County, all
at city expense. All of the Hondurans have since fled the housing and have
yet to be re-arrested.
"The allegations that city officials were helping illegal alien drug
traffickers evade federal enforcement are being investigated by the U.S.
Attorney at this time," said C.A.P.S. President Diana Hull, "We are asking the
state of California to investigate possible official corruption.
"It is generally assumed that this activity is the result of the city's
sanctuary ordinance," Hull said. "But the involvement of the US attorney
points to possible criminal activity; like payoffs from the drug cartels to
protect their dealers. Since San Francisco obviously can't investigate
itself, we are asking the State of California to begin their own investigation
of the Probation Department and Youth Guidance Center complete with assets
investigations of all their employees. We are also asking that everyone be
run through E-Verify, the DHS electronic employment verification system to
identify any illegal aliens working in that San Francisco department."
Hull also asked that the California Department of Justice shut off any law
enforcement money destined for San Francisco until the city's sanctuary
ordinance is removed and all city departments are officially informed that
they must comply with all federal laws and inform immigration officials about
possible violations.
"San Francisco has provided the country with the perfect example of how
these sanctuary city ordinances can protect lawbreakers," Hull said. "If
warranted, the prosecution of city officials for aiding and abetting these
illegal alien drug traffickers will lead to the end of these totally misguided
anti-American ordinances."
