"There's no room for fear in our community," said Interim Chief Michael Igo on his X account, adding that "we're here to serve and protect all Dallas residents"

Summary

The Dallas Police Department (DPD) announced it will not participate in ICE immigration raids, instead launching outreach meetings to reassure immigrant communities.

Led by the UNIDOS Latino Community Outreach Program, the initiative aims to dispel misinformation and encourage crime reporting.

Interim Chief Michael Igo emphasized that DPD focuses on public safety, not immigration enforcement. However, individuals with outstanding warrants may still face arrest and possible deportation.

Additional meetings, including legal guidance sessions, are planned in Dallas and neighboring areas to support and inform migrant residents.

      Ummm yes, literally what you wrote. A honeypot FOR ICE; if all the ICE agents show up where they are told there will be a bunch of immigrants but there’s just one middle aged white guy named Jim Bob, then everyone else is safe.

      muwahahahah
