L.A. County jails to expand immigration screening

"Immigrant rights advocates criticize the screenings, saying that the sheriff's custody assistants are not adequately trained in complex immigration law and that there is room for error that has led to the deportation of at least one U.S. citizen. They also say it discourages ... immigrants from reporting crimes to the Sheriff's Department."
