Judge wants change in federal treatment of ‘illegal aliens’

Carolyn Hileman* | May 2, 2007

A state Superior Court judge called for a grassroots effort to change federal laws which he said currently allow legal immigrants and U.S. citizens to be prosecuted for unlawful activity, but prohibits prosecution of “illegal aliens.” “It’s happening in communities like Gettysburg and Shenandoah and Tamaqua,” Judge Correale “Corry” F. Stevens told members of the Adams County Republican Committee Thursday evening at the county ag center, “and it could happen in Black Horse Tavern and Aspers and Zora.” For example, he said state police stopped a van for speeding on an interstate and detained the four “illegals” they found inside. “They called ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and they were told, ‘Let them go,’” Stevens said. “The policemen had no choice.”
