U.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed Thursday that their agents requested to see the identification of domestic flight passengers landing at a New York airport Wednesday night as they searched for an undocumented immigrant who had received a deportation order to leave the United States.
Looks like ICE was looking for someone specifically.

The question is:

Quote:

It is unclear what would have happened had officials found other undocumented immigrants getting off the airplane and whether they would have faced deportation if identified. It is also unclear what would have happened to any passenger who refused to produce his or her identification for the agents.

that was a waste of money and all that just for 1 guy. You have to imagine that they're going to run out money soon.

Why let him on in the first place?

If they were looking for him TSA could have simply pull him aside. A waste of resources checking everyone. CBP must have been hoping to catch more people from this act who were accompanying him. However, they do have the right do this as all airports are their jurisdiction.

Because TSA is not 100% efficient.

Good point to the people who point at the efficiency of enforcement.

Money will indeed run out.

This executive order sounds bad, but full implementation will take years.

Anyone think this is coverup? Saying they were looking for someone to avoid bad press?

1) Why didn't they just go on the flight and say, we are looking for XYZ. If you are on the flight, please step up.

2) They said the person never boarded the plane but officials could not confirmed that with the airline/flight attendees. What was the point in asking everyone to show "documents".
