JUST IN: Seattle Jails ADMIT to Employing Illegal Aliens As Guards, Vows to Fight the State to Keep Them

[Conservative Angle]

​

Just when you think the left can’t get any more insane, they find a way to prove you wrong.

In King County, Washington, the jail system has admitted to employing around three dozen illegal aliens as corrections officers to guard U.S. citizen inmates.

You may ask: how is that legal?

Well, it’s not.

There are both state and federal laws that make it illegal to hire illegal aliens.

However, the jail officials are refusing to fire these illegal immigrants and have vowed to fight the state in order to keep them employed as guards.

Here are the details:

They didn’t explain how they would challenge the federal law that similarly prohibits employing illegal immigrants.

Earlier this month, a whistleblower accused King County of unlawfully hiring illegal immigrants as jail guards.

Fox News via Yahoo News has more:

State and local officials are investigating a Seattle-area corrections department after a whistleblower alleged the county was hiring unqualified immigrants as guards, according to a complaint filed with Washington state authorities.

“Individuals have been hired while holding only temporary work visas, and in some cases, with expired work authorization altogether,” the unnamed whistleblower wrote to the state’s Criminal Justice Training Commission (WSCJTC), regarding hirings in King County. “These hires are in direct violation of the statutory requirements set forth by state law.”

The whistleblower was identified only as an officer from the King County Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention.

The King County Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention released a statement to The Jason Rantz Show after news of the scandal broke out.

From Breitbart:

In a statement to The Jason Rantz Show, DAJD said:

All are fully trained as corrections officers and authorized to work in the United States. King County is committed to safety and the fair treatment of these officers and continues to work closely with the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission (WSCJTC). We are keeping all available avenues of relief open at this time.

The jail’s allegedly illegal hiring practices came to light after a whistleblower filed a complaint claiming that the department had hired as many as 100 illegal aliens, which would violate the Revised Code of Washington 43.101.095, which states that only legal U.S. citizens may be hired as corrections officers, according to KTTH AM radio’s Jason Rantz Show.

According to Rantz, the state law does allow jails to hire “lawful permanent residents [and] individuals covered” under Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

The DAJD has openly admitted to hiring 38 individuals who were “incorrectly certified as meeting the conditions of RCW 43.101.095(2)(b)(v),” but they are refusing to fire the illegally hired employees. In fact, the department seems poised to fight against the state law and keep the illegally hired employees.

DAJD also says the violation of hiring laws was simply an oversight and insisted that the illegally hired corrections officers will stay on the job for now.

“To ensure the integrity of jail operations and the safety of our staff and those in our custody, most of the officers continue to work their assigned shifts while we have ongoing conversations with the CJTC about next steps,” the department said. “All officers who continue to perform duties have completed full training through the CJTC.”

Oh, they’re fully trained?

That changes everything…

I’m so reassured.

In Seattle, illegals are guarding American citizens in prison.

Read that again.
