Government released hundreds of immigrant felons

With President Obama's Department of Homeland Security finalizing a review of its deportation practices to see how they can be conducted "more humanely," critics are using a report that found 36,007 convicted criminals were released by immigration officials last year to call for an end to the review.

The revelation that 36,007 criminal aliens were released from ICE custody in 2013, an average of nearly 100 per day, is shocking, and could further shake public faith in the effectiveness of current immigration enforcement policies. This information is sure to raise concerns that, despite professions of a focus on removal of criminal aliens, Obama administration policies frequently have allowed political considerations to trump public safety factors and, as a result, aliens with serious criminal convictions have been allowed to return to the streets instead of being removed to their home countries.
