57.9% of Illegals Caught at U.S.-Mexico Border in FY17 Not Mexican; From 111 Other Countries
January 18, 2018 | Only 42.1 percent of the “deportable aliens” that the U.S. Border Patrol apprehended along the U.S.-Mexico border in fiscal 2017 were citizens of Mexico, according to data produced by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
A significant majority—57.9 percent—came from 111 other countries. In fact, during fiscal year 2017, the Border Patrol apprehended deportable aliens along the U.S.-Mexico border who came from 84 countries that are not in the Americas. In fiscal 2017, according to a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spreadsheet, the Border Patrol apprehended a total of 310,531 “deportable aliens” in all 20 Border Patrol sectors. (These include nine sectors along the Southwest Border with Mexico, eight across the Northern Border with Canada, and three along the nation’s Coastal Border.) Of the total 310,531 “deportable aliens” the Border Patrol apprehended, 303,916 (or about 97.9 percent) were apprehended in the nine sectors along the Southwest Border with Mexico. Of these 303,916 deportable aliens apprehended along the Southwest Border, 175,978 (or 57.9 percent) were citizens of countries other than Mexico and 127,938 (or 42.1 percent) were citizens of Mexico.

The top three countries that ranked after Mexico for having their citizens apprehended as deportable aliens in Border Patrol sectors along the U.S.-Mexico border were Central American countries. These were Guatemala (65,871), El Salvador (49,760) and Honduras (47,260), which ranked second, third and fourth. But India ranked fifth. In fiscal 2017, the Border Patrol apprehended along the Southwest Border 2,963 deportable aliens who were citizens of India. In fact, the Border Patrol apprehended more citizens of India in its nine sectors along the U.S.-Mexico border than citizens of Brazil (2,621) or Ecuador (1,429), which ranked sixth and seventh for having deportable aliens apprehended on the Southwest Border. The Peoples Republic of China ranked eighth, with the Border Patrol apprehending 1,364 Chinese citizens along the Southwest Border in fiscal 2017. That put the China ahead of Nicaragua, which ranked ninth. The Border Patrol apprehended 1,057 Nicaraguans along the Southwest Border in fiscal 2017.

Among the Top 41 countries whose citizens were apprehended by the Border Patrol along the Southwest Border, 21 were not in the Americas. In addition to India (2,943) and China (1,364), these included Nepal (647), Bangladesh (564), Romania (433), Pakistan (224), Albania (49), Vietnam (49), Somalia (48), Sri Lanka (48), Kosovo (45), Turkey (35), Nigeria (28), Ghana (14), Afghanistan (14), Saudi Arabia (14), Israel (11), Jordan (10), South Korea (10), France (9), and Hungary (9). Notably, the deportable aliens from Nepal (647), Bangladesh (564), Romania (433) and Pakistan (224) that the Border Patrol apprehended along the Southwest border in fiscal 2017 exceeded those apprehended from Columbia (196), Dominican Republic (181), Cuba (147), Venezuela (73) and Haiti (57). Additionally, the Border Patrol apprehended deportable aliens who are citizens of nations outside the Americas more often at the U.S.-Mexico border than at the Northern Border or the Coastal Border. For example, while the Border Patrol apprehended 2,943 Indian citizens at the Southwest Border, it apprehended only 168 at the Northern Border, and 24 at the Coastal Border. Similarly, the Border Patrol apprehended 1,364 Chinese citizens at the Southwest Border, but only 32 at the Northern Border and 17 at the Coastal Border.

According to DHS, the term “deportable aliens” includes “any alien illegally in the United States, regardless of whether the alien entered the country by fraud or misrepresentation or entered legally but subsequently lost legal status.”

ICE Official: Illegals Who Witness Crimes by MS-13 Gang Should Not Fear Deportation
January 18, 2018 – An Immigration and Customs Enforcement official told the House Homeland Security subcommittee on Thursday that illegal immigrants who witness crimes by gang members like MS-13 should not fear being deported if they come forward, because there are protections for witnesses who cooperate with law enforcement.
During a hearing on Combating Transnational Gangs Through Information Sharing held by the Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee, Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-N.Y.) asked Raymond Villaneuva, assistant director in charge of international operations for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, how he deals with the fear that illegals will be punished for coming forward about MS-13 gang members. “There are many undocumented immigrants, who I’m sure you are aware are victims of transnational criminal organizations, including MS-13, certainly where Chairman King and I are from. They witness crimes by gang members, but as you know, many of them don’t want to come forward, because they are afraid that they are then going to be taken into custody, deported, depending on what their status is,” Rice said.

“So my question is, it seems that the administration’s rhetoric and policies towards undocumented immigrants have really caused that fear to escalate. So how are you as law enforcement agencies needing information from people who may be here illegally but are being victimized and have information to help you address the criminal activities of MS-13 and other gangs. How do you deal with that issue?” Rice asked. “It’s a concern that we law enforcement deal with every day. As a matter of fact, there are protections for witnesses when they come forward to law enforcement – whether they’re in the country legally or not,” Villaneuva replied. “Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, the INA, we can provide those individuals with continued presence,” he said, adding that the authority has been “delegated to the authority of Homeland Security, which then delegates that to ICE.”

“We can work with that community, and we can offer protections, continued presence, significant public benefit paroles, and there’s some other tools out there to protect those individuals from being deported, to protect those individuals from violence from those gangs,” Villaneuva said. “So there’s protection for them when they come forward to law enforcement, and when I’m saying law enforcement, not only ICE, HSI, when they come forward to the FBI, we will work with our FBI partners to grant those protections to any witness that comes forward regardless of that person’s immigration status,” he said.

When asked whether that’s made it easier for law enforcement to get information and how does the government inform people that it’s okay for illegals to come forward, Villaneuva said, “So we do have actually outreach campaigns through the victim assistance program, and certainly, efforts like this where we have the ability to talk to the American people about the programs are paramount to get the word out, so really appreciate your question on this topic.”
