"New immigration policy goes into effect in Houston jail
Currently, anyone booked for minor crimes at the city jail can post bond and leave. But under a new policy, those suspected of being in the U.S. illegally will be fingerprinted and held for federal immigration officials.
The Harris County Jail already follows such a policy.
"Here at the city jail, we haven't had people from ICE and we haven't asked specific questions and it makes a whole lot of sense that we mirror what the county does," said Hans Marticiuc with the Houston Police officers' union."
