The crime rate among illegal immigrants in Arizona is twice that of other residents, Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Friday, citing a new report based on conviction data.
The report, from the Crime Prevention Research Center, used a previously untapped set of data from Arizona that detailed criminal convictions and found that illegal immigrants between 15 and 35 are less than 3 percent of the state’s population, but nearly 8 percent of its prison population.
And the crimes they were convicted of were, on the whole, more serious, said John R. Lott Jr., the report’s author and president of the research center.
His findings also challenge the general narrative that immigrants commit fewer crimes. Those past studies usually don’t look at legal versus illegal populations, Mr. Lott said.

But they’re doing it out of love.
I suppose it stands to reason that people who don’t have a problem with breaking a country’s border laws - would not have a problem with breaking other laws.

Yep, it’s only the ones caught and I’d bet those are in the minority.
Maybe 10x if you take out the black crime from the native born.
I just read a stat compiled by Americans for Legal Immigration (ALIPAC) that 71,000 American citizens have been killed by illegals since 9/11.
Bump!
Worse than whites and Asians, two or three times better than blacks.
The illegal immigrant supporters always conflates legal immigrants with illegal when they misrepresent the crime numbers coming from the illegal community
and after you subtract the illegal criminals, what are the crime rates for whites vs. blacks?
Obama’s people cooked the books at every opportunity.
For example, the illegals the BP caught at the border, processed and released: branch HQ chiefs were told to report them as `Deported’ to artificially boost their numbers.
2008 through 2016 had to be a continuing nightmare for field agents just trying to do their jobs. Recall that it got so bad they were ordered to serve as nannies for the future Dreamers while Obama & Co. arranged transport for them into the country. It was outright law breaking.
