The Trump administration is quietly sending hundreds of Cubans and other immigrants with significant criminal records in buses across the border to Mexico, in an expansion of third-country deportations.

But without legal documentation in Mexico, they are now in a new limbo, and it is unclear what future awaits them. Some told the Miami Herald they have spent weeks searching for work, food and shelter, and sleeping on the street.

The Herald spoke to six men in Mexico and lawyers for six other deportees who say the Department of Homeland Security drove them in buses to the southern border and handed them over to authorities in Mexico. All had been convicted of crimes in the U.S. Some had served prison sentences and had final orders of deportations for years. They said Cuba would not take them back.

The men have serious criminal convictions in the U.S. including drug dealing, domestic violence, theft, armed robbery, child abuse and battery. Some had additional charges for which they weren’t convicted — including in one case attempted murder.

Some said that officials told them they could either get off the bus in Mexico or be sent to an unspecified country in Africa. Others said they were not told where they were heading, and others said Mexican authorities left them near the Guatemala border and told them to “head south” out of Mexico.

“Very often, these are people with old crimes that have served their sentences and paid their debt to society already,” Prada said. “Sure, they should be able to be deported to their home countries. But if you send them to some third country, including to the other side of the globe, without family or contacts, that’s inhumane.”

8. There's Cuban immigrants and there's Cuban immigrants.

I'll wager the MAGA ones are far more Caucasoid than the deportees.

5. "...with significant criminal records..."

While this is certainly true, it highlights another issue.
Very many Cuban immigrants to Florida own their own businesses. The largest category of theft in the US is wage theft.
Can it be that almost all of the worst Cuban immigrant criminals are still in Florida, running their own businesses, and completely unprosecuted for their thefts?
