Denver, Boulder ignored ICE detainers for migrants with child abuse, assault arrests, House GOP report reveals

FIRST ON FOX: A blue state's law enforcement officials are keeping illegal immigrants accused of violent crimes out of the reach of federal authorities, a new report claims.

The House Judiciary Committee, led by Rep.

Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, released new findings Friday in its investigation into sanctuary jurisdictions and their impact on law enforcement across the country.

The latest is a 25-page report that accuses top prosecutors in Denver and Boulder of helping illegal immigrants evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), while also revealing for the first time the names and graphic charges against some of those whom House GOP investigators say are being shielded from President Donald Trump's federal crackdown.

JIM JORDAN SUBPOENAS BLUE STATE DAS ACCUSED OF 'PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT' FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CRIMINALS Among them is "Fernando Barrios-Ramirez, a Venezuelan national arrested for sexual assault on a child," the report said.

Another alleged criminal Denver is accused of ignoring an ICE detainer for is Juan Andres Holguin-Mendez, a Mexican national whose "criminal history also includes arrests for willful cruelty to a child, DUI, malicious mischief, possession of a controlled substance, trespassing, disturbing the peace, and evading a peace officer." Holguin-Mendez was arrested for damage to property, the report said.

A Venezuelan national named Diego Cano-Diaz with multiple alleged protective order violations was "arrested for aggravated assault with a weapon, resisting arrest, and assault," the report said, but his ICE detainer was ignored in Denver as well.

At least four illegal immigrants were arrested due to alleged domestic violence in Denver but also had their ICE detainers ignored, the report said.

WATCH: DEM DEMANDS 'ONE CASE' WHERE SANCTUARY CITIES DIDN'T TURN OVER ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS; DHS PROVIDES LIST In Boulder, "Mario Hernandez-Quiroz, a Mexican national arrested for child abuse and failure to appear," was among those whose ICE detainer was ignored.

Ignoring an ICE detainer does not necessarily mean law enforcement released the accused back onto public streets.

It does, however, delay potential federal deportation proceedings to ensure the accused does not stay in the U.S.

DHS BOSS REVEALS OVAL OFFICE PLAN TO 'WITHHOLD FUNDING' FROM SANCTUARY CITIES AFTER AGGRESSIVE NEW YORK BUST But the report did accuse district attorneys in Denver and Boulder of helping illegal immigrants suspected of criminal acts to evade ICE, including being more lenient with their treatment in order to avoid federal immigration proceedings — in effect, accusing them of letting more undocumented criminals back onto the streets.
