and not those conducted internally by ICE. I doubt arrests are down at all. Last year, ICE seems to have deported 393,000 people.

Rusnok said nearly 393,000 people were deported from the U.S. in the last fiscal year. ICE reports show that more than 195,000 had criminal convictions.

This is a misleading headline because this article only talks about border arrests EFerrari Dec 2011 #7

sounds like overall deportations to me, not just those caught at the border n/t Bacchus4.0 Dec 2011 #8

Yes, that was my point. The headline says arrests are down EFerrari Dec 2011 #9

I didn't read it that way. Less people are trying or willing to try to cross so fewer arrests. Bacchus4.0 Dec 2011 #10
