US sees uptick in migrants committing serious crimes

● Authorities claim an uptick in violent crimes committed by migrants.
● Three Palm Beach County cases this month have been listed as examples.
● Lawyer: US immigration system can't keep up with influx of migrants.
An uptick in migrants committing serious crimes is shining a light on the nation’s border policies.
Florida law enforcement authorities have reported an increase in violent crimes being committed by migrants in the U.S. illegally. In just the past month, three suspects have been arrested in connection to violent crimes in the Sunshine State.
Florida-based immigration lawyer Rolando Vazquez said the state is receiving thousands of illegal immigrants who aren’t being properly vetted before being released in the U.S. but who also don’t have court dates for years.
“And now, the courts are congested until 2027-2028, some even further. That’s a major problem we are seeing. Our system itself is collapsing, it’s just too many cases,” Vazquez said. “I don’t think any country is equipped to take this many immigrants in over such a short period of time.”
Vazquez said these criminal cases underscore a much larger problem happening at the border.

This week, House lawmakers will meet on Capitol Hill to discuss two bills to improve the border crisis. The first would require migrants in the U.S. illegally who are arrested for assaulting law enforcement officers to be detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for possible deportation.
The second would require Attorney General Merrick Garland to submit a report to Congress detailing the effects the migrant surge at the border has had on agents.
NewsNation contacted U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for comment regarding why Guerrero wasn’t removed from the country despite the deportation order issued seven years ago. ICE has not yet responded.
