Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal slammed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as “madeup, fake, wannabe law enforcement,” asserting that ICE’s actions violate both “legal law” and “moral law.”
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner warned that law enforcement officials who commit crimes in Philadelphia will be arrested and charged.
“So I’m with the DA,” Bilal declared. “You don’t want this smoke. Cuz we will bring it to you,” Bilal said. In a dig at President Donald Trump, she warned that “the criminal in the White House would not be able to keep” ICE agents from heading to jail.
