Idaho county probation officers compile ‘foreign-born list’ to hand over to ICE as critics raise alarms

Probation officers in a southwestern Idaho county compiled a list of foreign-born people on probation for federal immigration authorities, even though they did not verify if individuals were illegally present in the U.S. The process involved coordination between the department and ICE’s Boise office in Canyon County. Critics fear that this compilation could lead to the detention of legally present noncitizens, calling the effort an "invasion of privacy."
