The Houston Chronicle reported that the Harris County District Attorney’s Office (which serves Houston, Texas) is considering a policy of asking criminal defendants for their immigration status before agreeing to a plea agreement. Give the correct answer and your case might end without going to trial. Give the wrong answer and you get scheduled for trial–no matter whether it even merits a trial. On a purely practical level, how is it a good idea to clog already overburdened courts with trials that often don’t need to exist.
Are you saying that this information is not known when some one goes to trial? You know the defendents’ name, aliases, address, martial status, race, etc. Certainly citizenship should be included.
