"bio": "Alex Emslie is senior editor of talent and development at KQED, where he manages dozens of early career journalists and oversees news department internships.\r\n\r\nHe is a former carpenter and proud graduate of City College of San Francisco and San Francisco State University, where he studied journalism and criminal justice before joining KQED in 2013.\r\n\r\nAlex produced investigative journalism focused on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11667594/the-trials-of-marvin-mutch-video\">criminal justice\u003c/a> and policing for most of a decade. He has broken major stories about \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/135682/amid-a-series-of-vallejo-police-shootings-one-officers-name-stands-out\">police use of deadly force\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10454955/racist-texts-prompt-sfpd-internal-investigation\">officer misconduct\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11712239/terrorist-or-troll-judge-to-weigh-whether-oakland-man-really-intended-to-attack-bay-area\">other\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11221414/hayward-paid-159000-to-husband-of-retired-police-chief-documents-show\">high\u003c/a>-\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10622762/the-forgotten-tracking-two-homicides-in-san-francisco-public-housing\">profile\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11624516/federal-agency-promoted-ranger-just-months-after-his-gun-was-stolen-and-used-in-steinle-killing\">cases\u003c/a>. He co-founded the \u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\">California Reporting Project\u003c/a> in 2019 to obtain and report on previously confidential police internal investigations. The effort produced well over 100 original stories and changed the course of multiple criminal cases.\r\n\r\nHis work has been recognized with numerous journalism awards, including a national Edward R. Murrow award for several years of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688481/sfpd-officers-in-mario-woods-case-recount-shooting-in-newly-filed-depositions\">reporting\u003c/a> on the San Francisco Police shooting of Mario Woods. His \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/147854/half-of-those-killed-by-san-francisco-police-are-mentally-ill\">reporting\u003c/a> on police killings of people in psychiatric crisis was cited in amicus briefs before the U.S. Supreme Court.\r\n\r\nAlex now enjoys mentoring the next generation of journalists at KQED.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

An appeals court \u003ca href=\"https://www.scpr.org/news/2017/09/07/75398/appeals-court-grandparents-not-part-of-trump-s-tra/\">ruled in September\u003c/a> that ties to family members like grandparents or cousins would also count as qualifying relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"JX6OUIvr68JrTjNniCXUyDfyOypLlgeF\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rules \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/07/11/73656/trump-travel-ban-to-hit-refugees-seeking-entry-thi/\">were applied this summer to refugees\u003c/a>, who were not allowed to use their relationship with a U.S. resettlement agency as a qualifying U.S. tie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the travel ban, those from the six Muslim-majority countries -- Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen -- were also required to prove close family or other U.S. ties. Those rules expired late last month, when the Trump administration announced a similar set of country-specific restrictions. These were set to take effect last week, but were blocked by two federal courts and are now on hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One part of the latest travel ban affecting North Korea and Venezuela remains in effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday, refugee resettlement agencies said the vetting process for refugees is already stringent, and can take from a year and a half to several years, depending on the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"MBvEdOae5EQpyZ6SYvVzgh8jgiRGirz7\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The vetting process for refugee resettlement involves up to, like, six different agencies,\" said Jose Serrano with World Relief, a refugee resettlement agency with offices in Garden Grove. \"Counter-terrorism organizations, Department of Homeland Security, CBP, FBI, Department of Justice. And even Syrians go through a sixth one. So the truth is refugees already go through a very in-depth screening.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those who don't want more refugees in the United States support the idea of longer wait times and more background checks for applicants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The waits are long, but if they turn out to be slightly longer, well then, that's just something that will have to happen in exchange for the more secure processing of refugees,\" said Joe Guzzardi with Californians for Population Stabilization, an immigration restriction group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration recently announced that the fiscal year 2018 ceiling for refugee admissions to the U.S. has been set at 45,000, the lowest number in years.

The revised ban, which targeted travelers from six Muslim-majority countries along with refugees, was also challenged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June, the U.S. Supreme Court allowed the travel ban \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/06/29/73355/trump-travel-ban-could-be-implemented-thursday/\">to move forward\u003c/a> but said that it could not be applied to people who had “a credible claim of bona fide relationship\" with a person or entity in the United States, like immediate family or a job. An appeals court \u003ca href=\"https://www.scpr.org/news/2017/09/07/75398/appeals-court-grandparents-not-part-of-trump-s-tra/\">ruled in September\u003c/a> that ties to family members like grandparents or cousins would also count as qualifying relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rules \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/07/11/73656/trump-travel-ban-to-hit-refugees-seeking-entry-thi/\">were applied this summer to refugees\u003c/a>, who were not allowed to use their relationship with a U.S. resettlement agency as a qualifying U.S. tie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the travel ban, those from the six Muslim-majority countries -- Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen -- were also required to prove close family or other U.S. ties. Those rules expired late last month, when the Trump administration announced a similar set of country-specific restrictions. These were set to take effect last week, but were blocked by two federal courts and are now on hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One part of the latest travel ban affecting North Korea and Venezuela remains in effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday, refugee resettlement agencies said the vetting process for refugees is already stringent, and can take from a year and a half to several years, depending on the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The vetting process for refugee resettlement involves up to, like, six different agencies,\" said Jose Serrano with World Relief, a refugee resettlement agency with offices in Garden Grove. \"Counter-terrorism organizations, Department of Homeland Security, CBP, FBI, Department of Justice. And even Syrians go through a sixth one. So the truth is refugees already go through a very in-depth screening.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those who don't want more refugees in the United States support the idea of longer wait times and more background checks for applicants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The waits are long, but if they turn out to be slightly longer, well then, that's just something that will have to happen in exchange for the more secure processing of refugees,\" said Joe Guzzardi with Californians for Population Stabilization, an immigration restriction group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration recently announced that the fiscal year 2018 ceiling for refugee admissions to the U.S. has been set at 45,000, the lowest number in years. The Obama administration set a cap of 110,000 last year, a number that was halved after Trump took office.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

They spoke French and wore fashionable dresses and barrettes in their hair. They were sheltered teenagers -- their mother hardly let them out of her sight. So coming to Camp Pendleton felt like an adventure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looked pretty to me,” Jessica said. “I never camped before so it was kind of like camping. I'm sure my mom was not happy, but for me it was fun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their mother was nervous about having her young daughters around so many military men in uniform. But Jessica and Evelyn remember the Marines as kind and gentle young men working to help the refugees. A base nurse treated their sister for asthma with great tenderness. The Marines shared scratchy blankets and clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was May, but it was cold for us, coming from Vietnam,” Evelyn said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah, we had to wear the army jacket.

So, in a way for him to connect with the refugees, he would walk around in his pocket with this little fish sauce. And then whenever he wanted to maybe flirt with some young lady, or be friendly with the kids, he would pull it out. ‘I got the fish sauce!’ He would even say that in Vietnamese!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for all their funny stories about their teenage adventures, Jessica also recalls the pain of watching adults in the camp traumatized by the war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There was a woman who saved the (leftover) rice. She would spread out a newspaper and dry the rice out outside of her tent every day.

They spoke French and wore fashionable dresses and barrettes in their hair. They were sheltered teenagers -- their mother hardly let them out of her sight. So coming to Camp Pendleton felt like an adventure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looked pretty to me,” Jessica said. “I never camped before so it was kind of like camping. I'm sure my mom was not happy, but for me it was fun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their mother was nervous about having her young daughters around so many military men in uniform. But Jessica and Evelyn remember the Marines as kind and gentle young men working to help the refugees. A base nurse treated their sister for asthma with great tenderness. The Marines shared scratchy blankets and clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was May, but it was cold for us, coming from Vietnam,” Evelyn said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah, we had to wear the army jacket.

They were mortified, but touched by the gesture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Actually, it was a pretty good gift at the time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was one Marine guy,” she said. “I think he served in Vietnam and then he learned how to eat fish sauce. So, in a way for him to connect with the refugees, he would walk around in his pocket with this little fish sauce. And then whenever he wanted to maybe flirt with some young lady, or be friendly with the kids, he would pull it out. ‘I got the fish sauce!’ He would even say that in Vietnamese!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for all their funny stories about their teenage adventures, Jessica also recalls the pain of watching adults in the camp traumatized by the war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There was a woman who saved the (leftover) rice. She would spread out a newspaper and dry the rice out outside of her tent every day. And I saw some GI walk by and he made a face like, ‘What's going on?’ But because we went through the war, we still have worries about not having food.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Meeting a Marine Who Helped Evacuate Refugees\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Camp Talega, the section of Camp Pendleton that once housed the refugees, is dusty and hot.

The fires ravaging the wine country are hitting this population hard. The lack of jobs and the destruction of affordable homes due to the fires could force people to move elsewhere. That’s a concern for grape growers in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We cannot afford to lose our labor force. Nobody can, whether it’d be in agriculture or anything else,” says Chad Clark, with Allied Grape Growers, a California wine-grape marketing cooperative that represents more than 100 wineries in areas affected by wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says dozens of vineyard owners have sustained damage. He says that could displace seasonal agricultural workers. Still, most vineyards are standing, and Clark says the priority there is to pick the grapes left on the vines as quickly as possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s proving to be very difficult, just because of all the road closures,” Clark says. “And you know, what people have lost — they’ve lost their vehicles, their means of transportation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valley of the Moon is one of the oldest wineries in the region. It wasn’t damaged, but many of its workers had to evacuate their homes.

The speaker of the House of Representatives, Paul Ryan, \u003ca href=\"https://www.speaker.gov/general/law-kate\">accused him of stealing the gun used to kill Steinle\u003c/a>. Blame for her death was placed squarely on Democratic leaders in San Francisco, who refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But much of what’s been said, and repeated — about Garcia Zarate, and about the circumstances that led to Steinle’s death — isn’t true.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are the facts: He didn’t have a violent criminal past. The bullet ricocheted before hitting Steinle. There’s no evidence he stole the gun.

So we’re going to do everything we can within the court process to bring the family justice,” he said. “When we look at a case, there really are only two things that we have to look at: the facts and the law … to see if we have sufficient evidence to prosecute a case.

They will tell the jury that Garcia Zarate found a gun wrapped in a T-shirt on Pier 14, and that it went off as he was unwrapping it. But Ugarte acknowledged that outside the Hall of Justice, the case has become “an immigration story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s in the narrative, but I think the reason it is, is that Donald Trump put it there, and focused on Mr. Garcia Zarate’s immigration status, as somehow a reason, as a motivating factor, for Ms. Steinle’s death, and keeps repeating that narrative, over and over again,” he said. “But the problem with using this case is that it’s based on a false narrative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez said there is one way the politicization of Steinle’s death has seeped into the murder case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If he was not a Mexican immigrant with prior felony convictions, he would not be charged with this crime,” Gonzalez said. “This is a guy with crackers in his pocket, and you don’t become a killer because you find a gun somewhere.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Sanctuary’ Controversy\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the weeks following Steinle’s death, critics pounced on the fact that Garcia Zarate had been released from San Francisco Jail two months before the shooting. Republicans like South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy fumed, blaming the city’s sanctuary law, which bars local officials from communicating in most cases with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With this horrific criminal history — they released him. So he would be free to walk around, and shoot someone’s daughter, which is exactly what he did,” Gowdy said on the floor of Congress weeks after Steinle’s death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”ni10b85PuIYtOKZrioKQdjn1fzq5LS2I”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Garcia Zarate’s path to that pier where Steinle was shot didn’t start in San Francisco Jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not much is known about his life, but his lawyers describe him as a perpetual migrant, repeatedly coming to the U.S. in search of a way to feed himself, which he couldn’t find in Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia Zarate never lasted long in the U.S. He kept getting caught.

But at the time, the federal Bureau of Prisons sent Garcia Zarate to San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, his 20-year-old marijuana charge was dismissed — San Francisco authorities said the evidence was destroyed years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the deputies reporting to then-Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi were left to figure out what to do with him. For more than two weeks, Garcia Zarate stayed in San Francisco jail as deputies went back and forth with federal prison authorities, making sure he’d served his full federal sentence. He had — so San Francisco released him, even though immigration agents had asked San Francisco to hold Garcia Zarate for deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a routine request from ICE. But San Francisco doesn’t honor those detention requests, because of its sanctuary laws. Many other cities also ignore such detention requests, because they’re simply that: requests. And federal courts have found that if jails do hold people past their criminal release date, it’s a violation of the inmates’ Fourth Amendment rights — and the sheriff can be sued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”fS407KniM7kYisCxasJlixFL2r6ARqUU”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mirkarimi, who was unpopular in San Francisco, was criticized for Garcia Zarate’s release by both Republicans and Democrats — including San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Mirkarimi said the critics who disagreed with his decision to release Garcia Zarate were asking him to ignore the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Really, is that really how cavalier we’re supposed to operate?” Mirkarimi told reporters in 2015. “Just like on a whim or wink or nod, that we just call ICE and say, ‘Hey we’ve got this guy?’ No, we follow the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Eileen Hirst, a spokeswoman for the current sheriff, said if someone like Garcia Zarate were in jail today, he would still be released under San Francisco law. What’s different is that since the shooting, the city has changed its policies so that prosecutors, courts and the sheriff purge old warrants like Garcia Zarate’s from the system if they no longer plan to prosecute them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Trump’s election, San Francisco officials have been unified in their support of the sanctuary law. But broader fault lines among Democrats that emerged because of Steinle’s death remain: For one, the case prompted some Democrats to jump on board when Republicans proposed a law named for Kathryn Steinle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11624522\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11624522\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-800x602.jpg\" alt=\"A memorial for Kate Steinle on San Francisco's Pier 14.\" width=\"800\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-800x602.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-1020x768.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-1180x888.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-960x723.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-240x181.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-375x282.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-520x391.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A memorial for Kate Steinle on San Francisco’s Pier 14. \u003ccite>(Erika Kelly/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Kate’s Law passed the House in June.

The speaker of the House of Representatives, Paul Ryan, \u003ca href=\"https://www.speaker.gov/general/law-kate\">accused him of stealing the gun used to kill Steinle\u003c/a>. Blame for her death was placed squarely on Democratic leaders in San Francisco, who refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But much of what’s been said, and repeated — about Garcia Zarate, and about the circumstances that led to Steinle’s death — isn’t true.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are the facts: He didn’t have a violent criminal past. The bullet ricocheted before hitting Steinle. There’s no evidence he stole the gun.

So we’re going to do everything we can within the court process to bring the family justice,” he said. “When we look at a case, there really are only two things that we have to look at: the facts and the law … to see if we have sufficient evidence to prosecute a case.

They will tell the jury that Garcia Zarate found a gun wrapped in a T-shirt on Pier 14, and that it went off as he was unwrapping it. But Ugarte acknowledged that outside the Hall of Justice, the case has become “an immigration story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s in the narrative, but I think the reason it is, is that Donald Trump put it there, and focused on Mr. Garcia Zarate’s immigration status, as somehow a reason, as a motivating factor, for Ms. Steinle’s death, and keeps repeating that narrative, over and over again,” he said. “But the problem with using this case is that it’s based on a false narrative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez said there is one way the politicization of Steinle’s death has seeped into the murder case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If he was not a Mexican immigrant with prior felony convictions, he would not be charged with this crime,” Gonzalez said. “This is a guy with crackers in his pocket, and you don’t become a killer because you find a gun somewhere.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Sanctuary’ Controversy\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the weeks following Steinle’s death, critics pounced on the fact that Garcia Zarate had been released from San Francisco Jail two months before the shooting. Republicans like South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy fumed, blaming the city’s sanctuary law, which bars local officials from communicating in most cases with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With this horrific criminal history — they released him. So he would be free to walk around, and shoot someone’s daughter, which is exactly what he did,” Gowdy said on the floor of Congress weeks after Steinle’s death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Garcia Zarate’s path to that pier where Steinle was shot didn’t start in San Francisco Jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not much is known about his life, but his lawyers describe him as a perpetual migrant, repeatedly coming to the U.S. in search of a way to feed himself, which he couldn’t find in Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia Zarate never lasted long in the U.S. He kept getting caught. And deported. Then caught again. Garcia Zarate served three prison terms for illegal re-entry between 1998 and his release to San Francisco in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Defense lawyer Gonzalez said he asked Garcia Zarate why he kept coming back, even after serving prison time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And he said literally, that he was living — he was on a ranch, and there wasn’t enough food for everybody, and he was literally asked to leave because there wasn’t enough food to feed everybody,” Gonzalez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Garcia Zarate’s string of deportations, he also racked up a handful of felony drug charges — including one in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was the border crossings that landed him in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11624519\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11624519\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/ICE1920-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. \u003ccite>(John Moore/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After two of those prison stints, federal prison officials handed him directly to immigration enforcement agents, who deported him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in 2015, they did something different: Instead of calling immigration officials, federal prison authorities called San Francisco about a 20-year-old marijuana charge against Garcia Zarate still on the books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bier of the Cato Institute said that has never made sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really mystifying, and there has not been a good answer, for why they chose this time to send him to San Francisco when in every other instance he was simply deported,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bier noted that after Steinle’s death, federal officials \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/melanie-hunter/lynch-federal-prisons-must-now-hand-over-illegals-deportation-orders-ice\">changed their policy\u003c/a> so that ICE requests take priority over local county warrants. But at the time, the federal Bureau of Prisons sent Garcia Zarate to San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, his 20-year-old marijuana charge was dismissed — San Francisco authorities said the evidence was destroyed years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the deputies reporting to then-Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi were left to figure out what to do with him. For more than two weeks, Garcia Zarate stayed in San Francisco jail as deputies went back and forth with federal prison authorities, making sure he’d served his full federal sentence. He had — so San Francisco released him, even though immigration agents had asked San Francisco to hold Garcia Zarate for deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a routine request from ICE. But San Francisco doesn’t honor those detention requests, because of its sanctuary laws. Many other cities also ignore such detention requests, because they’re simply that: requests. And federal courts have found that if jails do hold people past their criminal release date, it’s a violation of the inmates’ Fourth Amendment rights — and the sheriff can be sued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mirkarimi, who was unpopular in San Francisco, was criticized for Garcia Zarate’s release by both Republicans and Democrats — including San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Mirkarimi said the critics who disagreed with his decision to release Garcia Zarate were asking him to ignore the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Really, is that really how cavalier we’re supposed to operate?” Mirkarimi told reporters in 2015. “Just like on a whim or wink or nod, that we just call ICE and say, ‘Hey we’ve got this guy?’ No, we follow the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Eileen Hirst, a spokeswoman for the current sheriff, said if someone like Garcia Zarate were in jail today, he would still be released under San Francisco law. What’s different is that since the shooting, the city has changed its policies so that prosecutors, courts and the sheriff purge old warrants like Garcia Zarate’s from the system if they no longer plan to prosecute them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Trump’s election, San Francisco officials have been unified in their support of the sanctuary law. But broader fault lines among Democrats that emerged because of Steinle’s death remain: For one, the case prompted some Democrats to jump on board when Republicans proposed a law named for Kathryn Steinle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11624522\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11624522\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-800x602.jpg\" alt=\"A memorial for Kate Steinle on San Francisco's Pier 14.\" width=\"800\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-800x602.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-1020x768.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-1180x888.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-960x723.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-240x181.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-375x282.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/SteinleMemorial-520x391.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A memorial for Kate Steinle on San Francisco’s Pier 14. \u003ccite>(Erika Kelly/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Kate’s Law passed the House in June.

It would allow some of the administration's new restrictions to take effect, but only for people who lack \"a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States\" — echoing the language \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/26/533934989/supreme-court-will-hear-cases-on-president-trumps-travel-ban\">used by the Supreme Court\u003c/a> when it partially restored part of an earlier travel ban in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two cases had been on the Supreme Court's calendar for the current term, but the court \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/09/25/553490088/supreme-court-removes-cases-over-trumps-travel-ban-from-calendar\">removed them \"pending further order\"\u003c/a> in September, after Trump issued a revised and expanded ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president's ban primarily targeted people from Muslim-majority countries — Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. In an apparent attempt to avoid the \"Muslim ban\" label that was applied to previous restrictions, Trump's proclamation also included citizens of North Korea and some officials of Venezuela's government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"MgVGROl91QeSrdS0LpRkJKxh4o1QTlgi\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both Maryland and Hawaii, the judges limited their latest rulings to travelers from the six Muslim-majority countries on the list. North Korea and Venezuela are not affected by these rulings; the restrictions on travel from those countries can go into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his memorandum opinion, Chuang noted that then-candidate Trump posted a document called \"Statement on Preventing Muslim Immigration\" on his website in December 2015. He also traced other references by Trump, including repeated calls for keeping Muslims out of the U.S. and, once in office, an embrace of the presidential order as a \"travel ban.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After federal judges blocked the president's earlier executive orders, Trump tweeted that the ban should be larger and tougher. \"This Court is obligated to pay attention to such statements,\" Chuang wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Civil Liberties Union has been arguing the case on behalf of the IRAP. Omar Jadwat, director of the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project, said Wednesday, \"Like the two versions before it, President Trump's latest travel ban is still a Muslim ban at its core. And like the two before it, this one is going down to defeat in the courts. Religious discrimination with window dressing is still unconstitutional.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's latest attempt at a travel ban came in late September, when he issued \u003ca href=\"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/09/27/2017-20899/enhancing-vetting-capabilities-and-processes-for-detecting-attempted-entry-into-the-united-states-by\">Presidential Proclamation 9645\u003c/a>, titled Enhancing Vetting Capabilities and Processes for Detecting Attempted Entry Into the United States by Terrorists or Other Public-Safety Threats.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration argues the travel restrictions are needed to protect national security. Justice Department lawyers say the government conducted an extensive worldwide review of other countries' security and intelligence-sharing practices, and then crafted new, tailored travel restrictions targeting countries that failed to comply with baseline U.S. standards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"7C6ygmTQtee8YOC5RM3ct4wJszng5gtL\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the most recent iteration of the ban, five of the countries had been named in previous versions; a sixth country, Chad, was added to the list, while Sudan was removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite those changes, the courts found the ban to be tainted by the same problems that tripped up the administration's earlier travel ban orders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"To the extent that the Government might have provided additional evidence to establish that national security is now the primary purpose for the travel ban, it has not done so,\" Chuang wrote in his ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration justified the new travel restrictions in part by referring to a classified report issued by the Department of Homeland Security, dated Sept. 15, 2017. But, Chuang notes, the administration did not share that report with the court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chuang also seems skeptical that the administration has applied its own security findings consistently. For example, Somalia was found to have adequate information-sharing practices, but it's still included in the total ban on immigration. The administration found that Venezuela, meanwhile, has inadequate information-sharing practices — but only government officials are barred from entry to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department is expected to appeal both rulings, meaning this version of the travel ban may also be headed for the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 4:15 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A federal judge in Hawaii has partially blocked President Trump's third attempt to restrict entry into the U.S. for citizens of certain countries. The Department of Justice says it plans to appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The newest version of the travel ban was due to go into effect on Wednesday. Like two previous executive orders, it was challenged in multiple courts. The new ruling by Judge Derrick K. Watson is only one piece of the complicated legal puzzle over the long-term fate of the president's efforts to limit travel to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his ruling, Watson wrote that the third version of the ban, like those before it, \"lacks sufficient findings that the entry of more than 150 million nationals from six specified countries would be 'detrimental to the interests of the United States,' \" evidence that he says would be necessary for the ban to be enforceable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, he issued a temporary restraining order that will keep the ban from being enforced for six of the eight named countries — the six majority-Muslim nations. North Korea and Venezuela, which were added in the most recent version of the ban, are not affected by the ruling, and the restrictions on travel from those countries can go into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Justice said in a statement that the ruling \"is incorrect, fails to properly respect the separation of powers, and has the potential to cause serious negative consequences for our national security.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House, in a separate statement, said the judge's decision is \"dangerously flawed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"2dYHoRvZToI0JZXHWRuxgOSSfnXYyGCU\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The entry restrictions in the proclamation apply to countries based on their inability or unwillingness to share critical information necessary to safely vet applications, as well as a threat assessment related to terrorism, instability, and other grave national security concerns,\" the White House says. \"These restrictions are vital to ensuring that foreign nations comply with the minimum security standards required for the integrity of our immigration system and the security of our Nation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling in \u003cem>Hawaii v. Trump\u003c/em> is the latest in the legal tug of war over Trump's attempt to impose a ban on travelers from predominantly Muslim nations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And this temporary restraining order is far from the end of the story. The Department of Justice says it will appeal the decision, and another federal court is also expected to rule on the third version of the ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The original ban, signed by the president in the first week of his term, targeted seven countries — Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Sudan — for 90 days. Syrian refugees were banned indefinitely. The ban also was imposed on lawful permanent residents, commonly known as green card holders, and travelers who had valid visas issued before the ban was to be implemented. That action met with immediate resistance as \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/29/512304697/dispatches-of-discontent-protesters-of-immigration-ban-take-to-the-streetshttp:/www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/29/512304697/dispatches-of-discontent-protesters-of-immigration-ban-take-to-the-streets\">protesters flooded airports\u003c/a> in major cities in support of travelers from those countries. Legal challenges to this first ban were successful, as a federal district court and the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/02/10/514491290/5-key-points-from-the-appeals-courts-travel-ban-ruling\">blocked it.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early March, Trump signed a new executive order. As NPR's Joel Rose \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/06/518858238/trump-signs-revised-order-banning-arrivals-from-6-majority-muslim-countries\">reported\u003c/a>, \"There are some key differences between Trump's original order and this one. It applies only to people from six majority-Muslim countries. Iraq has been dropped from the list. Lawful permanent residents or green card holders are explicitly exempt. So are travelers who already have valid visas. And refugees from Syria are no longer banned indefinitely, though the U.S. refugee program is still suspended for 120 days and the number of refugees admitted this year cut by more than half.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watson, the judge in Hawaii, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/15/520329249/federal-judge-in-hawaii-issues-order-blocking-trumps-travel-ban\">blocked\u003c/a> that second travel ban, too, saying that it was unconstitutional because it disfavored a particular religion. A court in Maryland came to the same conclusion. The parallel rulings were upheld by appellate courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That set the stage for the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene.

The Department of Justice says it plans to appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The newest version of the travel ban was due to go into effect on Wednesday. Like two previous executive orders, it was challenged in multiple courts. The new ruling by Judge Derrick K. Watson is only one piece of the complicated legal puzzle over the long-term fate of the president's efforts to limit travel to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his ruling, Watson wrote that the third version of the ban, like those before it, \"lacks sufficient findings that the entry of more than 150 million nationals from six specified countries would be 'detrimental to the interests of the United States,' \" evidence that he says would be necessary for the ban to be enforceable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, he issued a temporary restraining order that will keep the ban from being enforced for six of the eight named countries — the six majority-Muslim nations. North Korea and Venezuela, which were added in the most recent version of the ban, are not affected by the ruling, and the restrictions on travel from those countries can go into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Trump\u003c/em> is the latest in the legal tug of war over Trump's attempt to impose a ban on travelers from predominantly Muslim nations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And this temporary restraining order is far from the end of the story. The Department of Justice says it will appeal the decision, and another federal court is also expected to rule on the third version of the ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The original ban, signed by the president in the first week of his term, targeted seven countries — Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Sudan — for 90 days. Syrian refugees were banned indefinitely. The ban also was imposed on lawful permanent residents, commonly known as green card holders, and travelers who had valid visas issued before the ban was to be implemented. That action met with immediate resistance as \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/29/512304697/dispatches-of-discontent-protesters-of-immigration-ban-take-to-the-streetshttp:/www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/29/512304697/dispatches-of-discontent-protesters-of-immigration-ban-take-to-the-streets\">protesters flooded airports\u003c/a> in major cities in support of travelers from those countries. Legal challenges to this first ban were successful, as a federal district court and the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/02/10/514491290/5-key-points-from-the-appeals-courts-travel-ban-ruling\">blocked it.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early March, Trump signed a new executive order. As NPR's Joel Rose \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/06/518858238/trump-signs-revised-order-banning-arrivals-from-6-majority-muslim-countries\">reported\u003c/a>, \"There are some key differences between Trump's original order and this one. It applies only to people from six majority-Muslim countries. Iraq has been dropped from the list. Lawful permanent residents or green card holders are explicitly exempt. So are travelers who already have valid visas. And refugees from Syria are no longer banned indefinitely, though the U.S. refugee program is still suspended for 120 days and the number of refugees admitted this year cut by more than half.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watson, the judge in Hawaii, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/15/520329249/federal-judge-in-hawaii-issues-order-blocking-trumps-travel-ban\">blocked\u003c/a> that second travel ban, too, saying that it was unconstitutional because it disfavored a particular religion. A court in Maryland came to the same conclusion. The parallel rulings were upheld by appellate courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That set the stage for the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene. In late June, the justices allowed Trump's travel ban to take \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/29/534947770/hawaii-asks-federal-court-for-clarification-as-travel-ban-goes-into-effect\">partial effect\u003c/a>, but they allowed people with \"close familial relationships\" with someone in the U.S. to enter the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate then turned on which familial relationships would be considered valid.

In the counties hard hit by the wildfires — Sonoma and Napa — Latinos make up about one-third of the population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have any kind of immigration people here,” said Roy Pitts with the Red Cross, who was managing a shelter this week at the Finley Community Center in Santa Rosa. “Our job is to shelter and feed them, and everyone is welcome no matter what. We want everyone to feel safe here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fears of immigration enforcement at evacuation centers kept undocumented residents away from much needed food and shelter, said Eva Santana, a Santa Rosa resident who had to flee her home in the middle of the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are scared of asking for help. They are scared of coming to these shelters,” said Santana, 56, on Monday after flames had consumed entire neighborhoods in the northwest part of the city. “Some of my neighbors had not left their homes yet because they might have been scared.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santana said friends of hers had been sleeping in cars or preferred paying the cost of a hotel to coming to the shelters, and that she and others were “guessing” what areas had been affected by the fires due to electricity and communication shortages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds of Latinos, many of them farmworkers, fleeing the fires in Sonoma County arrived on Monday morning at Point Reyes in Marin County. Some were sleeping in cars and tents, said Socorro Romo, with West Marin Community Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve heard rumors that people were afraid to go to the shelters,” said Romo, who has worked in the Point Reyes area for more than 20 years. “That may be a concern for some of these folks staying away from official shelters.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many evacuees are just looking for better air quality and a healthy distance from the fire zone, she added. Since the fires began, local residents and organizations have provided food and a place to stay for dozens of evacuees, said Romo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, hundreds of Latino evacuees, including dozens of children, were staying at the shelter set up at Marin Exhibit Hall in San Rafael, where some Spanish-language resources were available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the intake process, evacuees are asked their names, contact information and whether they have any medical conditions or medication needs, said Laine Hendricks, a spokeswoman for Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No questions of citizenship status; no request for citizen documents or Social Security cards,” said Hendricks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwab, with ICE, said shelters and evacuation centers — along with schools and hospitals — are “sensitive locations,” places that ICE agents generally avoid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We would not go to an evacuation center or shelter anyways. Those are not places we typically operate in,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

In the counties hard hit by the wildfires — Sonoma and Napa — Latinos make up about one-third of the population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have any kind of immigration people here,” said Roy Pitts with the Red Cross, who was managing a shelter this week at the Finley Community Center in Santa Rosa. “Our job is to shelter and feed them, and everyone is welcome no matter what. We want everyone to feel safe here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They are scared of coming to these shelters,” said Santana, 56, on Monday after flames had consumed entire neighborhoods in the northwest part of the city. “Some of my neighbors had not left their homes yet because they might have been scared.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santana said friends of hers had been sleeping in cars or preferred paying the cost of a hotel to coming to the shelters, and that she and others were “guessing” what areas had been affected by the fires due to electricity and communication shortages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds of Latinos, many of them farmworkers, fleeing the fires in Sonoma County arrived on Monday morning at Point Reyes in Marin County. Some were sleeping in cars and tents, said Socorro Romo, with West Marin Community Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve heard rumors that people were afraid to go to the shelters,” said Romo, who has worked in the Point Reyes area for more than 20 years. “That may be a concern for some of these folks staying away from official shelters.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many evacuees are just looking for better air quality and a healthy distance from the fire zone, she added. Since the fires began, local residents and organizations have provided food and a place to stay for dozens of evacuees, said Romo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, hundreds of Latino evacuees, including dozens of children, were staying at the shelter set up at Marin Exhibit Hall in San Rafael, where some Spanish-language resources were available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the intake process, evacuees are asked their names, contact information and whether they have any medical conditions or medication needs, said Laine Hendricks, a spokeswoman for Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No questions of citizenship status; no request for citizen documents or Social Security cards,” said Hendricks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwab, with ICE, said shelters and evacuation centers — along with schools and hospitals — are “sensitive locations,” places that ICE agents generally avoid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We would not go to an evacuation center or shelter anyways. Those are not places we typically operate in,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
