Bureau of Prisons: 1 in 5 Inmates Is Foreign-Born

About 1 in 5 inmates in Bureau of Prisons (BOP) custody is foreign-born, a Department of Justice (DOJ) report reveals.

A new report from Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ DOJ showed that out of the 185,507 inmates currently in BOP custody, 39,455 of the inmates — or about 21 percent — were foreign-born who either entered the U.S. illegally or legally.

According to the newly released data, 51 percent of the 39,455 foreign-born inmates in BOP custody are illegal aliens who are subject to final deportation orders. Another 38 percent of the foreign-born inmate population remain under investigation by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency.

Don't deport them. Make them do hard labor. Surely there is some hard labor for them to do. Hard labor is a good deterrent for illegal aliens.
