Abstract:
In North Carolina, many Latinos are deported for minor offenses, not for serious crimes. Examples are provided of how many Latinos in the state have been deported for minor offenses through a process begun by local law enforcement officials under the 287 (g) program. Deportation for minor offenses is not the goal of the 287 (g) program, but local law enforcement have been straying from the rules in some cases. Alamance, Cabarrus, Cumberland, Gaston, Henderson, and Mecklenburg counties, the Wake County Sherriff’s office, and the Durham Police Department all participate in the 287 (g) program. Several graphs and charts provide statistics highlighting the trend.
