ICE has run facial-recognition searches on millions

Walther-Rodriguez, the Baltimore area director for CASA, said her group grew suspicious after a series of raids and detentions in recent months and questioned how the immigrants had been found. In many of the detentions, she said, immigrants had recently acquired state driver's licenses. One man detained three weeks ago in Rockville said he was told by the arresting officer that he was found through Maryland's Motor Vehicle Administration.



Twenty states allow FBI agents to scan driver's license photographs, and the agency has run more than 390,000 facial-recognition searches of state DMV rolls and other local databases since 2011, the Government Accountability Office said last year.

But Maryland, Rudolph said, appears to be the only state where ICE officials anywhere in the country can run a search as long as they have access to the National Crime Information Center, a widely available law-enforcement database maintained by the FBI, which he called "an unprecedented level of access for federal agents - including ICE deportation agents."

I saw that. The question is if they are going for all of them or just the ones with a criminal record.

they already have our hd pic and finger prints so this story does not apply to DACAers

Damn! just found out my friend's brother was picked up by ICE this morning.
DUI 2 years ago while on DACA smh!


My 2007 DUI still hunts me.


They have all our info already. 2MoreYears is right.

They already have your pictures, but they'r also sweeping through social media to find matches so even if you don't have the exact same name, they'll find you and can see that "Oh, that guy just checked into Pizza Hut on main street...we can go pick him up without incident".

Was he in trouble with the law lately? Was his DUI expunged? Do you have more details?
