The New Orleans Police Department responded to the DHS statement with its own statement following the arrest of Temah:

Recent statements regarding Recruit Larry Temah are misleading. The New Orleans Police Department verified Mr. Temah’s employment eligibility through ICE’s E-Verify system prior to hiring and was never notified of any ICE detainer. New Orleans is not a sanctuary city, and NOPD does not control jail operations or detainer decisions, which fall under the Sheriff’s Office. Any claim that NOPD knowingly violated the law is false.
Officer Reese Harper (NOPD Director of Communications)

    In case you fail to read the article or statement above, they claim to have used ICEs own system to verify his eligibility. the incompetency has no bounds.

    It's not incompetency. Incompetency assumes you tried in good faith to do something the right way.

    What ICE is doing is just trying to piss people off enough to be scared for their lives. They ARE accomplishing that task.

    Did they cross reference this guys identity, and verify he was a citizen? No, but that was never their intent.

    They aren't incompetent. They're malicious. Intentionally evil.

    "ICE arrests black man for existing while black." There, fixed the headline.

    Real brave of New Orleans PR putting out a statement defending themselves while completely ignoring their officer. No mention of their confidence in him - or denying that he's a "Criminal illegal alien having no place in our community." Fucking pussies.

    Kidnapping a police officer is a bold move. In the interest of compliance with rules, I sincerely hope that this trend of LARPer vs. LEO will not continue until there is a predictable and unfunny consequence.

    And the response of the police department of course is literally "ey, we did our due diligence, it's not our fault if he's illegal" instead of "GET YOUR FUCKING GRUBBY NAZI CLAWS OF MY EMPLOYEES YOU ORANGE FUCK!"

    ACAB. Any cops that do not act to remove the fascists from power are complicit and should be brought before a people's court for their complicity in crimes against humanity after we have taken back control from the pedophilic elites they serve.

    This is inception levels of blue lives matter getting canceled out by Black Lives Matter.

    Must be sad when you have to stoop down to this level and still can jumpstart that civil war so you can cancel elections.

    I literally said this yesterday, after watching the Police intervene in the illegal arrest of a Meidas reporter.

    I'm waiting for a shoot out between ICE and Police and scrolled and found this article.

    I understand black communities need black, local cops, but I'll never understand a person of color choosing to be a cop. The institution literally starts as slave catchers.

    Policing is a necessary function of civil society. We need good cops and good law enforcement policy. ICE is not that.

    My brother in Christ should receive a legitimate offer compensation for this little fuck up. I would be willing to take this case, waive my fee & work pro boner on this case of gross incompetence. I swear, those ice fucks have 2 brain cells & they’re both fighting for third place.

    Not sure if "pro boner" is Intentional or not... 🤔

    I’ll just wave my boner. I sure wish I could practice law in New Orleans. One thing kept me from passing the bar exam in the state of Mississippi. That thing is integrity.

    Still not sure if you're serious, but using "boner" instead of "bono" as a legal term might have something to do with not passing the BAR.

    Welp. I guess we're addressing the police problem? We did it?

    This probably should have been "New Orleans cop arrests ICE and calling them illegal" to see what the response would be to that.
