INS inquiry over railroad killer case prompts inspector general review
Del Rio News Herald reports Immigration and Naturalization Service Commissioner Doris Meissner says the INS may have known of Rafael Resendez-Ramirez serial killer activity before returning him to Mexico. Meissner refers the matter to the Justice Department Inspector General and orders INS Internal Audit to assist. The Border Patrol detained Resendez-Ramirez eight times since 1998 but released him after processing. The IDENT system, used for tracking illegal aliens, was implemented in 1994 and widely used by 1997 98, with the Del Rio Sector operational in 1997. Immediate actions aim to prevent release of serious criminals.
