White House mum amid outrage over data showing how many illegal immigrant criminals are free in US
Story by Adam Shaw • 10h
Well, a disturbing development on the border crisis.
Over 13K illegal immigrants convicted of murder have been released into US
The White House has yet to comment on new data released to lawmakers showing the number of illegal immigrants with convictions for sex offenses and homicide convictions and who are not in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention.
The agency provided data to Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, about national data for illegal immigrants with criminal charges or convictions. The data, as of July 2024, is broken down by those in detention, and those who are not in detention — known as the non-detained docket. The non-detained docket includes noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings, but are not detained in ICE custody.
There are currently more than 7.4 million people on that docket, up from around 3.7 million when former President Trump left office.
The data says that, among those not in detention, there are currently 425,431 convicted criminals and 222,141 with pending criminal charges. The data does not reveal how many of those criminals are recent arrivals.
For comparison, in August 2016, towards the end of the Obama administration, ICE said there were about 2.2 million noncitizens on the non-detained docket and about 368,574 were convicted criminals.
