(The Washington Examiner) — The District announced it was joining Secure Communities in November, but has yet to bring the system online, the Washington Examiner has learned.
“The IT requirements/logistics needed to be carefully crafted and properly addressed to ensure the reliable and accurate transfer of information between MPD, the FBI and DHS-ICE,” District police spokeswoman Gwendolyn Crump said in an e-mail. ICE confirmed it is working with the District to put in place the program that checks the fingerprints of every inmate against an immigration database.
