From failed governor Bill Richards, no less. Anybody wonder why this hasn't made any main-stream news service?

ALBUQUERQUE - Gov. Bill Richardson has directed the New Mexico Children, Youth and Families Department to start reporting violent juvenile criminals who are foreign nationals to federal immigration authorities.
The agency has not been reporting them to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement since 2006, when then-Secretary Mary-Dale Bolson suspended a state regulation requiring CYFD to do so, according to a copyright story Tuesday in the Albuquerque Journal.
That regulation required CYFD to report all foreign nationals entering its system. The rule was in place when Juan Gonzalez, a Mexican national who's now 20, was accused in 2005 of raping a 6-year-old boy and molesting a 3-year-old girl.
CYFD spokeswoman Romaine Serna says the governor's directive resulted from a recent case where Gonzalez is accused of molesting a 6-year-old girl at an Albuquerque gym.
