U.S. immigration officers arrested 2,059 convicted criminal aliens in a five-day operation, the Department of Homeland Security said on Monday.
Those arrested are subject to being removed from the United States, and more than 1,000 have multiple criminal convictions, the department said in a statement.
The sweep, called Cross Check, started March 1 and ended March 5. It was the sixth such operation since May 2011, the statement said.
More than 1,000 of those arrested were convicted of felonies, including voluntary manslaughter, child pornography, robbery, kidnapping and rape.
Those arrested include 58 known gang members or affiliates and 89 convicted sex offenders. Most of the misdemeanor convictions were for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, the statement said.
The detained foreign nationals who do not face U.S. prosecution will be processed for deportation, it said, without giving a breakdown of the nationalities of those arrested.

They’ll all be released I’m sure.

Didn’t ICE just release all these criminals from the detention centers a few months ago?

Operation Cross Check...cross checking their identities with the identities they released just a few months ago.

So who let those more than thousand convicted felons wander out into the public without deporting them?

Good thing they found them so they can file for earned income tax refund, before April 15th.

A lot of them are released from state and local incarceration in sanctuary jurisdictions. Many of the others successfully re-entered after being deported.
the ones cut loose by immigrations judges are basically untouchable until they commit another crime.

This is a joke. Obama released thousands of illegals...and now they’re undoing the wrong?? Nuts...
To: SeekAndFind
So they managed to round up what? About a day’s worth of border jumpers?
We’ve held a sealed border between N and S Korea for over 60 years now, and all of these whining politicians tell US that we can’t do that here because it would be too difficult and expensive?
I call BULLSHIT on this one. Militarize our southern border, and treat all of the mexican illegals the same as the mexican government treat’s their illegals.

Here’s a silly question, why weren’t they given an escort to the border the day they were released from prison?

Herd them into the back of a C-5 and drop them into the sea of cortez from 20000 ft., we wont have to worry about “re-entry” or any more crimes committed against our people by these savages.
