LAX IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT IS KILLING AMERICANS
Daniel Horowitz has reviewed ICE’s brand new comprehensive enforcement and removal operations report. ICE reported that it issued detainers on criminal aliens in fiscal year 2019 who were collectively charged with 2,500 murders. To put that in perspective, albeit via an imperfect comparison, Horowitz says that law enforcement agencies only arrested 9,049 individuals in total for homicide in 2018.
This source places the total number of murder arrests in 2018 at a slightly higher number — 11,970. Either way, it’s clear that illegal aliens make up a shockingly high percentage of those arrested for homicide.
Horowitz acknowledges that some of those for whom a detainer issued in fiscal year 2019 might have been legal immigrants who were convicted of murder a while ago. But “the bulk of them,” he adds are “front-end detainers on illegal aliens who have just recently been charged with murder.”
Horowitz also notes that most illegal immigrants live in sanctuary jurisdictions where law enforcement doesn’t cooperate with ICE. Thus, there are many crimes, including murders, committed by illegal aliens that don’t result in detainers. California, for example, is home to by far the most illegal immigrants of any state in America. Yet, ICE only apprehended a fraction of the number of criminals they caught in Texas.
Thus, but for sanctuary jurisdictions, illegal immigrants would make up an even larger percentage of homicide arrests in the U.S.
The bottom line is that an alarming percentage of murders in America are committed by people who are here illegally. These are murders that we could prevent in many cases if we effectively enforced our immigration laws, e.g., by beefing up ICE and stepping up expedited removals.
Unfortunately, Democrats (and some Republicans) are dead set against such measures and against effective immigration enforcement generally.

MS-13 has been declared 'inoperable' in New York after police arrested 96 members in a sting that is believed to be the largest ever take down of the violent street gang in the state.
The Suffolk County District Attorney announced the charges against the 96 MS-13 members and associates during a press conference in Long Island on Friday.
The arrests stem from a two-year investigation that saw authorities thwart seven attempted murder plots and countless other acts of violence.
A number of drugs and weapons, including machetes, were seized from MS-13 gang members during the operation.

Of those arrested, 45 alleged gang members and 19 associated drug suppliers were charged with murder conspiracy, drug trafficking, gun possession and gang violence charges.
Authorities say the lengthy operation has dealt a significant blow to MS-13 leadership in New York with nine leaders arrested.
During the investigation, authorities say they learned that MS-13 were trying to building up their presence in Long Island by trying to recruits gang members from other states.
In addition to the 96 people charged, the Drug Enforcement Administration made more than 100 additional arrest - in New York and El Salvador.
'The goal of this investigation was to deliver a major blow to the gang’s leadership, operations and recruitment in the our region,' district attorney Tim Sini said.

The violent gang are behind several murders in region, including the 2016 deaths of teenagers Kayla Cuevas and Nisa Mickens who were fatally attacked with baseball bats and machetes.
The international gang was founded in Los
Angeles in the 1980s by immigrants fleeing a
civil war in El Salvador.
MS-13 now has 8,000-10,000 members in the
U.S. alone - most of Salvadoran, Guatemalan
and Honduran descent.
While MS-13 has been around for decades, law enforcement officials on Long Island say the region has seen a unique surge in activity since 2015 - the same time the area received a major influx of unaccompanied minors from Latin America.
MS-13 leaders in the U.S. often communicate and take orders from gang leaders in El Salvador.
Long Island communities have been strongly impacted by the violence and suffering spread by MS-13.
Police suspect the gang was involved in at least 25 killings on Long Island between 2016 and 2018.
The gang’s motto is ‘mata, viola, controla’ which means ‘kill, rape, control'.
