Companies hired by ICE would be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is considering hiring private bounty hunters to locate immigrants across the country, according to a procurement document reviewed by The Intercept. Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE.

According to the document, which solicits information from interested contractors for a potentially forthcoming contract opportunity, companies hired by ICE will be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate, with further assignments provided in “increments of 10,000 up to 1,000,000.”

    The vests on the guys in the thumbnail are amusing. Esp the one that says “POLICE ICE” it looks like a typo or an echo “umbrella, ella, ella, ay, ay, ay”

    They look so dishevelled and unprofessional. Like a group of weekend wannabes who have found their hobby. They should have joined a bowling league or built RC cars, instead they’re exorcising their pain and humiliation from every perceived slight and injustice they’ve suffered in life by victimising people who simply wanted a chance at a better life and were willing to do backbreaking, dangerous, disgusting work in the shadows of society in pursuit of that dream.
