Travis County Sheriff Sally Hernandez already was on ICE’s radar for announcing earlier this year that she’d defy federal immigration detainers filed at the jail – only under extreme circumstances.
She’s at it again this week. The U.S. Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement is accusing Hernandez’s office of releasing an inmate from the Travis County Jail without notifying them. The inmate, Julio Cesar Mendoza-Caballero, 33, is a violent gang member who had previously been deported four times. He has now been taken back into custody.
Hernandez strongly pushed back at ICE’s assertion, insisting that her office did alert ICE – multiple times. She also accused the immigration office of “overreacting” and making political judgments.

She was hired to do a job paid for by taxpayers. If a person breaks a national, state or local law she is obligated to do her job or get fired for breaking it. What about “ILLEGAL” doesn’t she get. Does she get to pick and choose which laws she will enforce? If her family members or friends rob a bank can or should she be allowed to pick and choose which laws to enforce with them?
PC sheriff vs Make America Great Again. You’re gonna lose Sally and rightfully so.
She probably has a deal with them… She receives free drug from them when she “lets them go” without calling ICE… She’s a real loser in my book…
Sally Hernandez continues her illegal ways! As a Fellow Texan I’m not quite sure why She has not been removed for violating her oath! Maybe she has ties with the Mexican mafia ! They really need to check out her banking deposits
She should be arrested and prosecuted for every crime he commits except she should get double punishment for every crime that this illegal criminal committed!
Amen!!
Sally you have got to go.The gangs are laughing at you for being stupid.
I figured it was a “hispanic” mucking foron, and I was right. The only thing we can hope for, is, the gangs grab her ass and work her over! Then maybe she won’t be so eager to let them go.
