Police officials from 34 local, state, and federal agencies, led by U.S. Marshals, rounded up 218 felons they had warrants on last week. An article in this morning’s Columbus Dispatch said it was one of the largest ever undertaken in that city .
Similar roundups have also been being done throughout the summer under a program the Marshal’s Service calls “Federal & Local Cops Organized Nationally,” including Washington state, Arizona, and Texas.
“FALCON” was launched in 2005 to apprehend fugitives at the same time Congress was refocusing the FBI’s mission to stopping terrorism. (Website)
