Nearly 600,000 illegal migrants have been released into the U.S. over the last two years without any date to appear in court under policies that were meant to help handle the record surge in border crossers.
In the past, migrants caught illegally crossing the border have been given documents with a court date to determine whether they’ll be deported. But under policies launched since a record surge began in March 2021, more than 800,000 have been released without court dates, NBC News reported.
Of those, only about 214,000 were later issued charging documents with court dates, meaning about 588,000 are likely somewhere in the U.S. with no clear path through the immigration process, according to data reviewed by NBC.
