Question $15$ of $31$

$15.$ When Border Patrol Agents encounter an individual who is unlawfully entering the United States or who is subject to removal under the Immigration and Nationality Act $($INA$),$ it is critical to identify who the subject is and to determine whether that individual is potentially a threat to officer safety or national security. To do so$,$ Agents take the individual to the local Border Patrol Station for processing. As part of processing, Agents capture ten fingerprints, a facial photograph, and an image of the subject's iris.

From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that, in the work of Border Patrol Agents,

A$)$ there are at least some individuals found to be unlawfully entering the United States or subject to removal under the INA whom Agents do not need to identify or assess for potential threats

B$)$ if it is critical to identify an individual and to determine whether that individual is potentially a threat to officer safety or national security, then that individual was found to be unlawfully entering the United States or to be subject to removal under the INA

C$)$ if Agents encounter an individual who is unlawfully entering the United States or who is subject to removal under the INA, then it is critical to identify the individual but not necessarily to assess him$/$her for potential threats

D$)$ if an individual is not found to be unlawfully entering the United States or to be subject to removal under the INA, then it is not critical to identify the individual and to determine whether that individual is potentially a threat to officer safety or national security

E$)$ in all cases when Agents encounter an individual who is unlawfully entering the United States or who is subject to removal under the INA, identification of the individual and assessment of the individual for potential threats are critical
