Illegal-Alien Criminality: The Statistics Don’t Lie

Including apprehensions and estimated “got-aways” the total number of illegals who entered America in 2023 is approximately 3.4 million.

That is more than the populations of each of the cities in America except New York and Los Angeles, and more than the populations of 22 separate U.S. states—all in just a single year.

In 2020 the final year of the Trump administration, the corresponding numbers were 516,908 illegal-alien encounters with border authorities, plus another estimated 119,000 “got-aways,” for a combined total of just under 636,000 unlawful intruders—scarcely 18.7 percent of the 2023 total.

The communist/globalist defenders of open-borders policies and their allies in the mass propaganda media have long claimed illegal aliens make wonderful neighbors who, per capita, commit significantly fewer crimes against persons and property than do native-born American citizens.

But common sense alone tells us people who ignore American immigration laws are likely to disrespect federal, state, and local laws as well. Indeed, as Ronald Mortensen pointed out in The Hill:

[V]irtually all adult, illegal aliens commit felonies [such as forgery, fraud, identity theft, and perjury,] to procure the documents they need to get jobs, to drive, and to obtain other benefits that are restricted to U.S. citizens.

These documents include Social Security cards, drivers’ licenses, green cards, birth certificates, and I-9 forms, among others.

The crimes of illegal aliens also include a multitude of violent, bloody, highly destructive offenses. And this is by no means a new phenomenon.

Between 2003 and 2009, illegals in the U.S. committed approximately 70,000 sex crimes, 42,000 robberies, 81,000 auto thefts, 95,000 weapons offenses, and 213,000 assaults. During that same period, some 115,717 murders were committed nationwide, of which 25,064 were carried out by ‘criminal aliens.’

In 2009, a total of 295,959 criminal aliens were incarcerated in state jails and prisons across the United States. Approximately 227,600 of them—or 77 percent—were in the U.S. illegally. And the crimes they committed were very often serious. Consider, for instance, the following crime statistics for five particular states with large illegal-alien populations. Setting aside traffic offenses:

– 41 percent of all illegal-alien convictions in Arizona were for drug crimes and assault;

– [A]bout half of such convictions in California and Texas were for drugs, assault, and sex offenses;

– [R]oughly 50 percent of such convictions were for drug offenses, sex crimes, burglary, and robbery; and

– [I]n New York, 23 percent were for drug-related offenses, while an astonishing 27 percent were for homicide.

The border state Texas has been hit particularly hard by the criminal behavior of illegal aliens:

According to an analysis conducted by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), 177,588 unique foreign-criminal-alien defendants were booked into Texas county jails between October 2008 and April 2014. Their crimes included at least 611,234 offenses, among which were 2,993 homicides and 7,695 sexual assaults. Between June 1, 2011, and November 30, 2021, some 356,000 criminal aliens were booked into Texas jails. More than 243,000 of them—or 68 percent—were in the United States illegally.

Between 2012 and 2019, approximately 3.2375 of every 100,000 illegal aliens in Texas were convicted of homicide—a figure 29% higher than the rate among the overall Texas population. Even more strikingly, 19.125 of every 100,000 illegals in Texas were convicted of sexual assault during that same time frame – about double the 9.85 rate among all Texas residents. In 2014, illegal aliens in Texas were arrested for murder at a rate 56 percent higher than the rate for all other apprehended murderers statewide.

According to data from the United States Sentencing Commission:

In 2014, illegal aliens—an estimated 3.5 percent of the U.S. population—accounted for 74.1 percent of all federal drug sentences nationwide, as well as 20 percent of the country’s kidnapping/hostage-taking sentences, 12 percent of its murder sentences, 19.4 percent of its national-defense related sentences, and 36.7 percent of federal crime sentences overall.

In California, Texas, Arizona, Florida and New York, though illegals were only 5.6% of the total population in those states:

Between 2008 and 2014, criminal aliens were responsible for 38 percent of all murder convictions.

In May 2016, Fox News reported:

[A] wildly disproportionate number of murderers, rapists and drug dealers are crossing into the U.S.

[I]llegals accounted for:

– 13.6 percent of those who had been sentenced for all crimes committed nationwide in recent years,

– 12 percent of those sentenced for murder,

– 20 percent of those sentenced for kidnapping, and

– 16 percent of those sentenced for drug trafficking.

A July 2018 report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that:

Between 2011 and 2016, criminal aliens accounted for anywhere between 21 and 25 percent of America’s federal inmate population, and

Between 2010 and 2015, state and local detention facilities across the U.S. housed some 533,000 criminal aliens who had been arrested approximately 3.5 million times for 5.5 million offenses including more than

— 1 million drug crimes,

— 500,000 assaults,

— 133,000 sex crimes,

— 24,000 kidnappings,

— 33,300 homicide-related offenses, and

— 1,500 crimes related to terrorism.

In a 2018 study of inmates who had been housed in Arizona state prisons since 1985, John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center, concluded:

Undocumented immigrants are at least 142% more likely to be convicted of a crime than other Arizonans,

They also tend to commit more serious crimes and serve 10.5% longer sentences,

[Are] more likely to be classified as dangerous, and

[Are] 45% more likely to be gang members than U.S. citizens [are].

Further, young undocumented immigrants commit crime at twice the rate of young U.S. citizens. These undocumented immigrants also tend to commit more serious crimes.

In a study released in 2019, the Federation for American Immigration Reform examined the rate at which criminal illegal aliens were incarcerated in state and local correctional facilities in ten U.S. states whose illegal populations accounted for 65 percent of all illegals nationwide. In one of those states, Arizona, the average illegal alien was statistically 301% more likely to be incarcerated than the average legal immigrant residing there.

In the other 9 states, the average illegal alien was:

– 231% more likely to be incarcerated than the average legal immigrant in California,

– 78% more likely in Florida,

– 161% more likely in Nevada,

– 440% more likely in New Jersey,

– 42% more likely in New Mexico,

– 187% more likely in New York,

– 267% more likely in Oregon,

– 60% more likely in Texas, and

– 248% more likely in Washington.

In December 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) reported:

[R]oughly 41,000+ criminal aliens who had been prosecuted in federal courts nationwide in 2018, the vast majority—about 38,000—were in the United States illegally.

In October 2020, The Hill stated that according to the Department of Homeland Security’s most recent Alien Incarceration Report:

[F]ully 94 percent of confirmed aliens who were imprisoned at the federal level were unlawfully present in the United States.

As of early January 2024:

[A]t least 617,607 aliens on the non-detained docket of the Immigration & Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) had either already been convicted of specific crimes or were facing pending criminal charges.

Communist/Globalist claims that illegal aliens commit fewer crimes than do native-born Americans are invariably based on the findings of studies that either:

(a) intentionally manipulate data to support a deceptive narrative, or

(b) fail to take into account key information that would yield a very different conclusion.

Another major concern is the fact that among those entering the United States illegally are massive numbers of people hailing from enemy nations openly hostile to America:

– CBP reports that 37,000 Chinese citizens were apprehended on the U.S.-Mexico border in 2023—50 times more than the corresponding figure from 2021,

– From January through November of 2023, more than 262,000 Venezuelans likewise entered the U.S. illegally, and

– On October 10, 2023, Fox News reported: [B]etween October 2021 and October 2023, [Border Patrol] agents encountered:

— 6,386 nationals from Afghanistan,

— 3,153 from Egypt,

— 659 from Iran,

— 538 from Syria,

— 13,624 from Uzbekistan,

— 30,830 from Turkey,

— 1,613 from Pakistan,

— 164 from Lebanon,

— 185 from Jordan,

— 139 from Yemen,

— 123 from Iraq, and

— 15,594 from Mauritania.

And yet another major threat stemming from The Regime’s obliteration of our southern border is the scourge of illicit drugs.

– In 2021, more than 106,000 Americans nationwide died of drug overdoses, including at least 70,601 from synthetic opioids other than methadone – mainly fentanyl, which is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine.

– Indeed, fentanyl has now become the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45, and the vast majority of it is smuggled over our border with Mexico.

Final thoughts: The reckless open-border sociocultural suicide of the Obiden Regime has created American vulnerability to violence, destruction, and sabotage.

The unconstitutional radical liberal treason and malfeasance must be stopped and must be severely prosecuted. Only the enforcement of existing laws and harsh deterrence will preclude this from ever again being perpetrated upon our beloved homeland.

Apologies for the extent of the mind-numbing statistics, still much more was excluded.
