ICE releases 19,723 criminal illegals, 208 convicted of murder, 900 of sex crimes

By Paul Bedard

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency in 2015 decided not to deport but release 19,723 criminal illegal immigrants, including 208 convicted of murder, over 900 convicted of sex crimes and 12,307 of drunk driving, according to new government numbers.

Overall, those released into virtually every state and territory of America had a total of 64,197 convictions among them, for an average of 3.25 convictions each, according to an analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies. ICE also said that the group were convicted of 8,234 violent crimes.

Meanwhile, ICE said that it has also slashed the number of criminals arrested in local communities, according to the Center's Director of Policy Studies, Jessica M. Vaughan. "In 2015, ICE made 119,772 arrests, or just half the number of arrests made in 2013, 232,287," she said in her analysis that also included a map of the releases.

The reason: Under President Obama's immigration policy changes, many criminal immigrants are being ignored even though local police and sheriff have urged ICE to take control of criminals in their jails and deport them.

She said that the slash of arrests is why the number of releases by ICE is down. In 2014, 30,000 criminal illegals were released.

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Thursday is holding a hearing on the issue of the releases. In a preview of the issues in the hearing, the committee said, "Each year, Immigration and Customs Enforcement releases tens of thousands of criminal aliens eligible for deportation. After release, many go on to commit additional crimes. With new restrictions on immigration enforcement through the president's executive actions, only narrow classes of removable aliens are priorities for arrest, questioning, detention, or removal. Therefore, millions of removable aliens will be able to remain in the country."

ICE for the first time explained why the illegals were released, with more than half ordered free by courts and in over 2,100 cases because their home countries didn't want them back.

Also from the Washington Examiner

The issue of released criminal illegal immigrants has erupted on the presidential campaign trail and in Congress, especially because several have gone on to commit further crimes, including murder. Republican front runner Donald Trump, for example, refers to the 2015 murder of Kate Steinle by a released criminal undocumented immigrant on a popular San Francisco pier.

It's a typical story, according to Vaughan, who wrote:

"When ICE releases criminal aliens instead of deporting them, the chances are high that the aliens will re-offend. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, approximately 71 percent of violent offenders, 77 percent of drug offenders, and 82 percent of property offenders will be arrested for a new crime within five years of release from jail or prison. Drunk drivers are especially prone to offend repeatedly. According to an FBI statistic cited by Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the average drunk driver has driven drunk 80 times before ever being arrested."

Since unemployment is so low, everyone has a job, so they need more workers.

I mean someone has to work on the white house fence.

** Total of U.S. law enforcement agencies, unknown?

1 in 3 Americans are dangerous

""The federal government is holding the records of 77.7 million people in its master criminal records file. That is one record for about every three U.S. adults. . Our page one story today looks at the often lifelong consequences of these arrest records , even for minor offenses or for charges that were thrown out. Here is a rundown.


All the local, state and federal law enforcement agencies with arrest authority submit fingerprints to the system. What is considered serious enough to be included in the file depends on the arresting agencies laws and ordinances. Some agencies send only felonies while others send felonies and less serious misdemeanor incidents.

If a charge is dropped or someone is acquitted it is up to the local authorities, primarily through the courts to notify the FBI. Those notifications are not mandatory however

Individuals can seek to have their records expunged as well, but that too is at the local level and once again that information has to be forwarded to the FBI so a record can be removed. The process is the same with a death. The local courts have to send documentation, such as a death certificate or coroner’s report to the FBI.

HOW LONG DOES THE FBI HOLD THE RECORDS?
The updated information also matters because once a record is on file they are on file for decades. Unless told otherwise, the FBI maintains them for 110 years until it purges them automatically. The oldest active file is for someone born in 1904 who was arrested December 30, 1920.""
