Colorado's AG sues deputy, saying he illegally shared information with immigration agents

DENVER — Colorado's Democratic attorney general on Tuesday sued a sheriff's deputy for allegedly helping federal immigration agents find and arrest a college student who had an expired visa. Attorney General Phil Weiser also disclosed that his office is investigating whether other law enforcement officers on a regional drug task force the deputy worked on have been sharing information to help federal agents make immigration arrests in violation of state law limiting cooperation in immigration enforcement. The federal government has sued Colorado over such laws.
