Article on new developments in Prince William immigration policy

This article illustrates how immigration enforcement is becoming more and more a part of local law enforcement. What I found most interesting about it is the paragraph near the end that says most people picked up on minor charges will likely not have their immigration status checked, except that may change when more resources become available. That suggests that the deeper involvement of local law enforcement in immigration checks is no longer a question of legal jurisdiction, but one of resources.
