ICE Conclude Largest Immigration Enforcement to Date-Almost 1,500 Arrested in MA, Over Half With Criminal Convictions

GP-

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced they have conducted the largest immigration enforcement yet.  Recent operations in Massachusetts and the Greater Boston area nabbed 1,461 illegals. Over half of those arrested, 790, had criminal convictions or charges. In addition, 277 had final orders of removal/deportation orders

A statement from ICE noted, “The Commonwealth of Massachusetts is a safer place today thanks to the hard work and determination of the men and women of ICE and our federal partners. Working together, we were able to arrest almost 1,500 illegal aliens throughout the Commonwealth, most of whom had significant criminality in the United States or abroad,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “Make no mistake: Every person that we arrested was breaking our immigration laws, but most of these individuals had significant criminality. They are criminal offenders who victimized innocent people and traumatized entire communities — murderers, rapists, drug traffickers, child sex predators and members of violent transnational criminal gangs. Some were convicted of violent crimes in the United States, and others were wanted for criminality in their native countries. All made the mistake of attempting to subvert justice by hiding out in Massachusetts.” more

  1. Make no mistake; the Soviet Commonwealth will do everything they can to impede the enforcement of laws against illegal aliens. Too, they will forbid state and local LE agencies from assisting the feds whenever they can. This started with Deval Patrick and hasn’t changed since his administration.
