Companies hired by ICE would be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is considering hiring private bounty hunters to locate immigrants across the country, according to a procurement document reviewed by The Intercept. Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE.

According to the document, which solicits information from interested contractors for a potentially forthcoming contract opportunity, companies hired by ICE will be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate, with further assignments provided in “increments of 10,000 up to 1,000,000.”

      Yeh but now its open season, every fuckwit with a gun and a couple of friends can start hunting people down without even needing to pretend to be ICE and even get paid for it.
