Ardmore man jailed for indecent exposure

An 18-year-old Ardmore man went to jail Tuesday after rejecting a police officer's order to cease exposing himself to neighborhood women. The officer was called to the 1100 block of Circle Drive, where two women told him the young man had repeatedly exposed himself and committed sexual acts in front of them and a small child. At one point the women said the man had even removed all of his clothing. The officer spoke with the suspect, telling him to cease the activity or he would be arrested. Minutes later, when the man apparently thought the officer was out of sight, he

Arizona County Uses New Law to Look for Illegal Immigrants

To people who say round up more illegal immigrants, Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County here has an answer: send out the posse. On Wednesday, the posse, a civilian force of 300 volunteers, many of them retired deputies, are to fan out over desert backcountry, watching for smugglers and the people they guide into these parts. Already, a small team of deputies roams the human-trafficking routes to enforce a nine-month-old state law that makes smuggling people a felony and effectively authorizes local police forces to enforce immigration law. Not only do deputies charge the smugglers, but many of their customers have also

The Amnesty Gamble; Immigration Law’s Impact Still Tough To Measure

IT was called a corpse that would not die, the immigration legislation that finally became law in 1986 after a year-to-year Congressional marathon. IT was called a corpse that would not die, the immigration legislation that finally became law in 1986 after a year-to-year Congressional marathon. Sixteen months later, as the nation enters the final two months of the largest amnesty program for illegal aliens in history, it is clear that the marathon has only begun. Born in tortuous compromise, the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 remains a patchwork and its long-term effects remain an utter mystery.

Crowds are smaller this year at immigration-law protests

Tens of thousands of people pressing for immigrants' rights demonstrated in dozens of cities. But with advocates splintered over tactics, the crowds paled in comparison with the turnout last year. The protests Tuesday, with some of the largest gatherings here and in Chicago and Phoenix, took aim at recent raids by immigration agents and stalled negotiations in Congress over proposals for the most sweeping changes in immigration law in 20 years. "I came here like everyone else to make sure we get a just immigration reform law passed," Abel Corona, 34, who described himself an illegal immigrant from Mexico, said as he

Administration Calls Law on Aliens Effective

The Reagan Administration says the new immigration law is working, as shown by a drop in apprehensions of aliens at the border, by a steady rise in applications for legal status and in broad employer compliance.

44-year-old man gets probation for indecent exposure

A 44-year-old man suspected of multiple counts of indecent exposure was sentenced Tuesday to four years probation, and he must register as a sex offender. Evan Curtis Johnson, who travels between Durango and Pagosa Springs, pleaded guilty to felony indecent exposure, a third or subsequent conviction. Johnson was accused of masturbating in public on three separate occasions within a couple feet of three women. The incidents, each separate, took place Dec. 2 and Dec. 3, 2003, at Fort Lewis College and at the First United Methodist Thrift Shop at 986 East Second Ave. The women each described similar incidents: a

Local Immigration Law Challenged by ACLU

A federal trial began Monday over an anti-illegal immigration ordinance passed in Hazleton, Pa., last year. The law punishes employers who hire undocumented immigrants, and fines landlords who rent to them. Hazleton Mayor Lou Barletta says the mountain-top town of 30,000 used to be an idyllic slice of America: seniors sitting on porches, kids frolicking in playgrounds. An economic revival in the past decade attracted an increasing number of immigrants — Mexicans, Dominicans and Central Americans. Some credit them with helping save the city from bankruptcy. But Barletta says he began to realize last year that the new population included illegal

First German Immigration Law Takes Effect

After much wrangling with the opposition, the German government drew up an immigration law to regulate migration last year. From Jan. 1, 2005, things have changed for foreigners. The catalyst for Germany's first immigration law was the realization that the country's graying population and declining birth rate will one day threaten to overwhelm social security systems and disrupt the economy if young people didn't immigrate to the country. At the same time, the new law represents a political compromise by not unrestrainedly throwing open the labor market to immigrants. In light of the country's high unemployment rate, many

The Supreme Court; High Court Backs Policy Of Halting Haitian Refugees

The Supreme Court today upheld the Bush and Clinton Administrations' policy of intercepting fleeing Haitians at sea and returning them to Haiti without asylum hearings. The 8-to-1 decision, written by Justice John Paul Stevens with a dissent by Justice Harry A. Blackmun, concluded that the policy was permitted under Federal immigration law and an international treaty to which the United States is a party. The Federal appeals court in New York ruled last year that the interdiction policy violated both the law and the treaty. But, because the Justices granted a stay, the lower court's decision never took effect. 'Tragedy
