NH police use criminal tresspassing against illegal immigrants

A small-town police chief used a criminal trespassing charge to try to turn back one illegal immigrant, saying he was frustrated that lax federal enforcement means ''if you make it past the border patrol, you're free and clear.''

''It's basically a situation here where right now if you make it past the border patrol, you're free and clear,'' Chamberlain said. ''What I'm hoping to do is find a way that if the feds aren't going to help us out, then local enforcement can take care of it.''
