The investigation follows reports that Democratic leaders have ordered state police not to cooperate with federal immigration officials.
Represented US attorneys for the District of New Jersey have launched an investigation into the governor and attorney general who allegedly refused to work with federal immigration officials.
“Today I would like to warn everyone that I have instructed my office to begin an investigation into the Government (Phil) Murphy and to begin an investigation into Attorney General (Matthew) Platkin. Representation of a US lawyer Alina Habba announced on April 10th when she appeared on Fox News.
“Pam Bondi made it clear, and so did our president, we are to enforce all… violent criminals and criminals completely from this country. And it’s not in the way of what we’re doing – it’s not political – simply against crime – for the sake of closure, for the sake of closure, and we’re blocked for the sake of closure.
Habba’s announcement follows media reports that Democrat leaders have instructed New Jersey State Police and Public Safety Communications officials not to take action on the roughly 27,000 immigration warrants that have recently been added to the FBI database.
Habba noted that the control warrant was issued by the court after legitimate proceedings.
“(Illegal immigrants) have passed the court system. They should be deported,” she said.
Murphy did not respond to requests for comment by publication time.
A Platkin spokesman pointed out his comments at a previous press conference.
“Look, I’m focused on doing my job, that is to keep our state’s residents safe,” Platkin told reporters when asked about the investigation. He said other law enforcement officials in New Jersey would do the same.
“I know an interim US lawyer. She wasn’t there for so long. She publicly said she wanted to politicize the office. She wants to start work,” he added.
“Alina leads with the same hard work and beliefs that defined her career, and fights tirelessly to ensure a “fair and fair” legal system for the great people of New Jersey,” Trump wrote at the time.
Haba’s appointment came amid the role of Trump’s predecessor, John Giordano, ambassador of Namibia. She has pledged to crack down on corruption, injustice and “mass crime.”
“When I saw what happened with the crime, what was going on in Newark, what was going on in Camden, this was ignored,” Haba told reporters on March 24.
“It’s one of the most populous states of its size and needs to be stopped. We’re going to do some intense work. I can’t wait. That’s a great honor.”
