It is not rocket science. When a sworn peace officer - city, county or state - sees a crime in progress the officer must arrest the persons committing the crime.
The United States government is encouraging some of its officers to detain and deport immigrants, and even some citizens, regardless of whether or not the said officers have proper legal authority.
Those actions are crimes.
When a sworn officer of the law in any city, county or state of the United States witnesses anyone including alleged Federal agents detaining anyone, they are required to ensure that the purported Federal agent is acting legally with due process.
If the officer determines that the purported agent is acting illegally, the officer should arrest, book and jail that alleged Federal agent for committing a crime. Then that person will have the opportunity to defend him or herself in a court of law. The officer should then release the detained person unless the officer thinks the detained person is a criminal.
But, if the officer determines that the purported Federal agent has adequate evidence of legal authority granted by due process to detain the person SIGNED BY A REAL JUDGE ONLY, then the officer should take custody of that person and book him or her into jail. The officer may choose to thank the Federal agent for their help.
A SWORN PEACE OFFICER MUST NOT ALLOW THE FEDERAL AGENTS TO REMOVE THAT PERSON TO ANY FACILITY OUTSIDE OF THE OFFICER'S JURISDICTION.
There is a likelihood that the Federal agent will commit a crime of deporting or jailing that person without due process.
