ICE released criminals

Recent disclosures have revealed that 2,200 illegal immigrants, some charged with crimes as serious as assault, kidnapping, drug trafficking and homicide, were released due to cost saving measures by U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

This information is in sharp contrast to information released by ICE that only low-level offenders had been released.

Who is going to bear the brunt of this flawed and misguided policy?

No wonder more Americans do not trust this government.
