District Attorney Brooke Jenkins is asking for a waiver to San Francisco’s sanctuary city designation so she can arrest two people suspected of a violent crime who have fled the country.
City laws prohibit the district attorney from working with federal immigration officials on deportation matters. Getting cooperation from the Department of Homeland Security on an extradition to a sanctuary city could be sticky as well, KTVU reported."We won’t let dangerous criminals evade prosecution simply by leaving the United States," Jenkins said.
Jenkins said she supports San Francisco’s sanctuary city stance but that these two cases are unique circumstances.
