DHS: 7K Convicted Migrants Freed in NY
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reports that nearly 7,000 convicted migrant criminals have been released in New York without federal notification since the Trump era. Officials argued the lack of communication has heightened public-safety risks by allowing offenders to return to communities without oversight. DHS officials warned that untracked individuals are a threat to community safety, and New York Attorney General Letitia James came under criticism for allegedly shielding offenders.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has re-arrested several repeat offenders. ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons wrote, “Virtually all Americans agree that people like this should be swiftly removed from the United States when they leave New York’s custody and not be returned to our streets to wreak havoc on law-abiding citizens.”
Lyons added, “These are people who are not only in the country illegally, but who have committed additional crimes, including heinous crimes like murder, rape, possession of child pornography, armed robbery, and many others.”
