DHS fires back at blue-city mayor unhappy about ICE operation, provides rap sheets for those charged

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Tuesday fired back at Democrat Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell's public accusation that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents "do not share [the state's] values of safety" after a Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) operation in coordination with ICE resulted in nearly 200 illegal immigrant arrests.

ICE and THP announced 196 arrests of illegal immigrants during the Nashville effort, 95 of whom had prior criminal convictions and pending criminal charges. 

More than 30 were previously removed individuals who reentered the U.S. illegally, a felony offense under federal law.
