"Almost 400 women have been slain in Juarez since 1993, about 100 of them in similar ways, generally involving rape, strangulation and mutilation.
There's no record of any deportations in the 1990s, but Granados pleaded guilty in 2001 to felony cocaine possession in exchange for 10 years probation and a promise to stay in Mexico and out of trouble. The probation was to be revoked if Granados re-entered the United States illegally, got caught with drugs or committed any crimes.
Granados did all that and more: Since receiving the probated sentence, he's been arrested, charged or convicted on county, state and federal offenses in the United States at least six times, records show. His latest charge came in January, when he grabbed a television set in the county jail and smashed it on the floor, according to an El Paso sheriff's deputy."
That was in El Paso, a sanctuary city, however, and I guess they don't like deportation orders.
What do you think?

sho ban - with environmental laws when they want to make sure something is enforced, they add a 'citizens suit' provision allowing citizens to sue the government to compell enforcement. I think we need that.
