Requires the arraignment of undocumented citizens who have committed violent crimes to occur within twenty-four hours and to determine at such arraignment whether such undocumented citizen shall be placed in the custody of federal immigration authorities or remain in the custody of the state.

This bill requires that undocumented individuals who are accused of violent crimes be arraigned within twenty-four hours. During this arraignment, it will be decided whether they will be held by state authorities or handed over to federal immigration officials.

Supporters of the bill argue that it ensures timely legal proceedings for undocumented individuals accused of serious crimes, promoting accountability and public safety. They believe it reinforces the importance of cooperation between state and federal authorities in handling violent crime.

Critics argue that this bill may lead to increased fear and mistrust within immigrant communities, potentially discouraging individuals from reporting crimes. They contend that it could result in unnecessary deportations and undermine the principle of due process for all individuals, regardless of immigration status.
