The American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts said it is concerned about sending thousands of names and fingerprints a year to ICE, including those of U.S. citizens, regardless of the severity of the offense of which they are accused.

I don't know what the fuss is about.
If one is arrested for just about any reason in Southern California, and I'm sure it's universally nation wide - including Massachusetts, names, finger prints, and mug shots go into the Federal crime computer.
In fact, it's a duplication for local police departments to send information to ICE - ICE could merely monitor the federal computer and skim the info without having to stir up sanctuary cities and various "advocate" organizations. A criminal record may be officially expunged from public view, but convictions and rap sheets never really go away.
And twelve aliases still only have one set of finger prints.
