Eight individuals, including four undocumented immigrants, were arrested last week in Florida on suspicion of illegally harvesting thousands of pounds of palmetto berries. But the episode made national headlines this week after Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey, who made the arrests, went on a tirade blaming Washington, D.C. lawmakers over their "complete and total failure" to keep the U.S. border secure

"While this specific case may not seem like a big deal to some, it is actually what this case revealed about the subjects who were arrested and the fact that they are in our country illegally that drives me absolutely insane and will most likely tick you off as well," said Ivey in a video picked up by Fox News.
