Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels and a coalition of local law enforcement and public officials will hold a public press conference Thursday afternoon to address Border Patrol street releases.
Dannels says that the Border Patrol's release of migrants onto the streets of largely-rural Cochise County are"another reflection of the fracture within the DHS infrastructure regarding the security of our southern border."
According to Dannels, a major concern is a lack of resources given to migrants themselves, as well as Cochise County's limited resources to provide assistance once migrants are released.Dannels released the following statement prior to the press conference: CBP leadership outside the boundaries of Cochise County have notified the CCSO and Emergency Services that street releases will begin today
Today’s announcement that CBP will begin migrant street releases into Cochise County is just another reflection of the fracture within the DHS infrastructure regarding the security of our southern border. These releases are a direct result of over-capacity by CBP which is forcing these migrant releases into our communities.
Sheriff Dannels has expressed his frustration regarding this decision stating, “The migrants being released are from outside Cochise County but were bussed to Cochise County, processed, and then released. Cochise County is a rural county with limited resources leaving these migrants vulnerable. In short, this lack of humanitarian consideration poses risk for the migrants.
