In a recent statement, Cristine Soto DeBerry, executive director of Prosecutors Alliance Action, has criticized President Donald Trump’s mass deportation strategy, calling it reckless and cruel. DeBerry, who has extensive experience in city government and prosecution, argues that the administration’s policies are undermining law enforcement’s ability to keep communities safe by instilling fear in immigrant populations. She emphasizes the importance of building relationships with immigrant communities for public safety and highlights the fact that immigration is associated with decreases in crime.
DeBerry also points out the potential negative consequences of mass deportations, such as separating millions of children from their families, increasing costs, unemployment, and crime rates, and destabilizing communities. She praises California’s SB 54, which limits local law enforcement’s involvement in immigration enforcement and allows them to focus on solving crime. DeBerry urges law enforcement officials in California to remain focused on their mission of keeping communities safe and not be swayed by the divisive rhetoric coming from Washington, DC. She emphasizes that protecting immigrant communities ultimately protects everyone.
