Judge blocks National Archives from allowing ICE to delete sexual assault, death records
Fox News
A federal judge Friday ruled that The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) didn't do enough consideration before granting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) the ability to destroy records on sexual assault and death.
ICE had proposed 20-year retention periods for Death Review Files, as well as Sexual Abuse and Assault files, as well as requesting disposition authority for other records. When NARA issued a memo recommending approval for ICE's revised request in 2017, it "contained scant discussion of the research value of the records ICE sought to destroy," Mehta said.More Related News
