So... You are saying criminal illegal aliens are likely to be criminals? Oh wait. They are in the country illegally. They are ALL criminals already and do not qualify for anything other than deportation.

In a briefing, the officers described how they planned to arrest the 25-year-old, who was born in Mexico, as he arrived — a step in the deportation process. He had a felony conviction for soliciting for child prostitution on his record, and he would be among the last of 19 people targeted by ICE’s Denver field office and arrested as part of this year’s national Sex Offender Arrest and Removal operation, known as SOAR." "They were among 275 immigrants arrested across the country from Feb. 5 to Feb. 16, ICE announced Friday. SOAR operations focus on apprehending immigrants who are in the country without authorization and have been convicted of sex crimes." **Between October 2022 and September 2023, the latest data available, the Denver field office arrested 8,129 immigrants in its region. Of those, 717 had criminal convictions, 266 had pending criminal charges and 7,146 were accused of immigration violations. During the same period, the region detained 4,007 people and deported 1,571.**
