Johnson Quoted in SF Chronicle

Associate Dean Kevin Johnson, a specialist in immigration law, was quoted in the San Francisco Chronicle in an article on immigration raids in the Bay Area. The article looks at the impact on families, especially children, who are often caught in the fray. According to the article, nationwide raids have resulted in the arrest of a large number of people who are not wanted fugitives.

Johnson said in the article that it seems like agents don't care whether the information in their warrants is wrong if it enables them to make arrests. "That seems like an abuse of the warrant," he said, "an abuse of the legal process."
