FREDERICK, Maryland -- Two elected officials in Frederick County are trying to deal with problems created by the influx of illegal aliens, including tougher police efforts and cuts in public education and other services.
Sheriff Charles A. Jenkins, a Republican, has applied for a federal program that trains local police to check the immigration status of those they arrest, thereby aiding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials in deporting illegals convicted of crimes.
