Immigration Background Checks Part II

When I posted 'Background Checks?', I was upset about the requirement for them to be done in 24-hours.

But now I am upset about another facet, which again, makes the provision for Background Checks wholly impotent.

Check out this quote (Hat Tip: Old Soldier):
We can find no record of having had contact with this individual before or having had him referred to us by another law enforcement agency,” Tim Counts of Immigration and Customs Enforcement told WTMJ.”
So if ICE can't find criminal illegal immigrants via criminal database checks now (because many localities refuse to records one's immigration status), how effective will it be when it has to be done within 24 hours??

Answer: The effectiveness will be zero.

Great....just great.
