Over the weekend, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) released updated sets of data with tables on arrests and apprehensions of illegal aliens who request Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) consideration. The report provides updated information on known arrests and apprehensions of DACA requestors. The data may include arrests that did not result in convictions or where the charges were dropped or otherwise dismissed. Sixty-two “Dreamers†were approved for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) despite having rape charges in their files, and two dozen had been accused of arson. Two with child pornography cases were given the OK, too, says U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Supporters often sell the Obama-era deportation amnesty as a reward for young illegal immigrants who have kept their noses clean, but the statistics show that 10% of those currently holding DACA status have criminal records. According to one USCIS official:
