NYPD: 75% of Arrests Are Illegal Immigrants
Illegal immigrants are overwhelming New York City’s justice system, with up to 75% of recent arrests in Midtown Manhattan involving illegal immigrants, according to the New York Post. They reported that most arrests are for crimes like robbery, assault, and domestic violence. Sanctuary city laws hinder the NYPD from cooperating with ICE and tracking immigration statuses, complicating efforts to address the overall issue. Illegal immigrants reportedly exploit the city’s lax bail guidelines, often reoffending soon after release.
More from the New York Post:
“There are days we have so many migrant cases, we have to call in for extra Spanish interpreters,” a law enforcement officer at the Queens Criminal Courthouse told The Post.
Another court officer said, “Come on Mondays! Almost every case is a migrant.”
While many of the crimes are domestic incidents or petty thefts, others are far more heinous, sometimes involving gang violence or vicious sexual assaults.
Business owners and residents in affected areas described a decline in safety and quality of life, while city officials and law enforcement expressed frustration over the challenges posed by current policies. Despite the NYPD’s vigilance, the growing illegal immigrant-related crime highlights the broader impact of immigration and bail policies on public safety in New York City.

What’s behind this onslaught? It’s not complicated. Number one, it’s the Biden-Harris open border policies, which have allowed as many as 10 million illegal border crossers into the United States since they took office. Number two, it’s progressive policies like “sanctuary cities” and no-bail laws.

America, this is the vision for the United States that presidential candidate Kamala Harris brings to the table. Her record is crystal clear, and we must hammer it home every single day—or soon this will be all our reality.
