Oregon Department of Corrections: Criminal Alien Report November 2016

The Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) November 1, 2016 Inmate Population Profile indicated there were 14,731 inmates incarcerated in the DOC’s 14 prisons.

Data obtained from the DOC indicated that on November 1st there were 964 foreign nationals (criminal aliens) incarcerated in the state’s prison system; more than one in every sixteen prisoners incarcerated by the state was a criminal alien, 6.54 percent of the total prison population.

Some background information, all 964 criminal aliens currently incarcerated in the DOC prison system were identified by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal law enforcement agency that is part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. If an inmate is identified by ICE as being a criminal alien, at the federal law enforcement agency’s request, DOC officials will place an “ICE detainer” on the inmate. After the inmate completes his/her state sanction, prison officials will transfer custody of the inmate to ICE.

Using DOC Inmate Population Profiles and ICE detainer numbers, the following table reveals the total number inmates, the number of domestic and criminal alien inmates along with the percentage of them with ICE detainers incarcerated on November 1st in the state’s prisons.

Beyond the DOC criminal alien incarceration numbers and incarceration percentages, per county and per crime type, or even country of origin, criminal aliens pose high economic cost on Oregonians.

An individual prisoner incarcerated in the DOC prison system costs the state approximately ($94.55) per day.

The DOC’s incarceration cost for its 964 criminal alien prison population is approximately ($91,146.20) per day, ($638,023.40) per week, and ($33,268,363.00) per year.

Even taking into account fiscal year 2016 U.S. Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) award of $1,788,075.00, if the State of Oregon receives the same amount of SCAAP funding for fiscal year 2017, the cost to incarcerate 964 criminal aliens to the DOC will be at least ($31,480,288.00).

None of preceding cost estimates for the DOC to incarcerate the 964 criminal aliens includes the dollar amount for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.

Oregon Department of Corrections: Criminal Alien Report for the Americas September 2016

Data obtained from the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) indicated that on September 1, 2016 there were 955 foreign nationals (criminal aliens) incarcerated in the state's prison system.

Breaking the DOC criminal alien prison population down by a specific geographic region of the world, 844 of the prisoners self-declared countries of origin were located in the Americas: North, Central and South America and the West Indies (Excluding the United States of America and its territories):

- North America had 771 criminal aliens, 91.35 percent of the DOC prisoners from the Americas;

- Central America had 52 criminal aliens, 6.16 percent of the DOC prisoners from the Americas;

- South America had six criminal aliens, 0.71 percent of the DOC prisoners from the Americas;

- The West Indies had 16 criminal aliens, 1.89 percent of the DOC prisoners from the Americas.

The 844 prisoners in the DOC prison system from the Americas were 88.38 percent of the total criminal alien prison population.

Some background information, all criminal aliens incarcerated in the DOC prison system were identified by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal law enforcement agency that is part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Once identified by ICE these criminal aliens had immigration detainers placed on them by immigration officials monitoring the state's prisons. After these criminal alien inmates have completed their state sanctions, prison officials will transfer custody of these inmates to ICE.

Using DOC ICE detainer numbers, the following table reveals the self-declared countries of origin of the 844 criminal alien prisoners from the Americas by number and percentage incarcerated on September 1st in the state's prisons.

Twenty- eight Oregon counties had at least one criminal alien from the Americas incarcerated in DOC prisons. Five of the state's counties, Marion, Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas and Lane, had 648 prisoners (76.78 percent) of the criminal aliens from the Americas incarcerated in the state's prisons.

Beyond the DOC criminal alien incarceration numbers and percentages by countries of origin, by crime types or by the state's counties, criminal aliens from the Americas pose high economic cost on Oregon tax payers.

An individual prisoner incarcerated in the DOC prison system costs the state approximately ($94.55) per day.

The DOC's incarceration cost for its 844 criminal alien prison population from the Americas is approximately ($79,800.20) per day, ($558,601.40) per week, and ($29,127,073.00) per year.

Even taking into account fiscal year 2015 U.S. Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) award of $1,602,510.00, if the State of Oregon receives the same amount of SCAAP funding for fiscal year 2016, the cost to incarcerate 844 criminal aliens to the DOC will be at least ($27,524,563.00).

None of preceding cost estimates for the DOC to incarcerate the 844 criminal aliens includes the dollar amount for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.

Trump: Not ‘One More American Life’ for Open Borders

Speaking to the families of those who have lost loved ones at the hands of illegal immigrant criminals Saturday afternoon in Houston, Texas, Donald Trump eviscerated the nation’s leaders for failing to protect American lives.

Speaking at a luncheon hosted by The Remembrance Project, the Republican presidential nominee said the victims of illegal alien crime had been “forced into the shadows” because politicians and media at large refuse to hear their stories and validate their grievances. Expressing his support for the families in their “lonely fight for justice,” Trump promised to stand with them and hold the government accountable for its “most fundamental duty” — to protect American lives.

“Our nation should not accept one lost American life because our country failed to enforce its laws.”

“There are a lot of numbers in the immigration debate. But let me give you the most important number of all,” Trump said. “That most important number of all is the number of American lives it is acceptable to lose in the name of illegal immigration. Let me tell you what that number is: ZERO,” he added. “Our nation should not accept one lost American life because our country failed to enforce its laws.”

Speaking softly to the audience members gathered at the event, Trump said that The Remembrance Project, which advocates for families who have lost loved ones at the hands of illegal immigrants, helped to bring attention to an issue that has become a “personal passion” for him.

“I have met many incredible people during the course of this campaign. But nothing has moved me more deeply than the time I’ve spent with the families of The Remembrance Project, and the incredible strength and courage you’ve shown in your often lonely fight for justice,” Trump said. “You are heroes. And your actions will help us to save the next thousand American citizens from losing their brothers, sisters, sons, daughters or parents.”

Trump lambasted the policies of the Obama administration and the policies promoted by Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton that have led to the release of nearly 13,000 criminal aliens between 2008-2014 back into the U.S. after their home countries refused to take them back, according to a report from The Boston Globe. Decrying Clinton’s plans for "total amnesty," protecting Sanctuary Cities and authorizing a "catch-and-release" border policy, Trump called Clinton to account for her failures.

"Most of these 13,000 releases occurred on Hillary Clinton’s watch — she had the power and the duty to stop it cold and she didn’t do it," Trump told the grieving families. "Now, my opponent will never meet with you. She will never hear your stories. She will never share in your pain. She will only meet with the donors and the special interests and the open border advocates."

Trump promised to enforce the rule of law and work as an advocate for these families if he is elected on Nov. 8.

"Your cause and your stories are ignored by our political establishment because they are determined to keep our borders open at any cost. To them, your presence is just too inconvenient," Trump said. "This must end. And it must end right now. Not one more American life should be given up in the name of open borders."

Immediately after Trump’s speech, his campaign released a statement from Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions — a vocal Trump surrogate and fervent advocate for clamping down on illegal immigrant crime.

"This serious problem was well known to Hillary Clinton the entire time she was secretary of state. Yet she failed to stop this practice when she had the duty and responsibility do so as secretary of state, failing to follow clear legal requirement passed by Congress," Sessions said. "Hillary Clinton must explain to the American people, and especially to the victims of these criminal aliens who were not deported, why she did not act to prevent these tragic events."

Clinton knew thousands of criminal aliens were being released, did nothing

September 14, 2016

Federal records show that from 2008 to 2014, nearly 13,000 criminal aliens who had been ordered deported were released back onto our streets because their home countries refused to take them back. This unacceptable practice has allowed many of these criminal aliens to commit new and serious crimes after their release, including rape, assault, child molestation, drug dealing, and murder. This serious problem was well known to Hillary Clinton the entire time she was Secretary of State. Yet she failed to stop this practice when she had the duty and responsibility do so as Secretary of State, failing to follow clear legal requirement passed by Congress.

Section 243(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act commands that when a foreign nation refuses or “unreasonably” delays the return of one of their nationals, the Secretary of State shall order our consular officials to stop issuing visas to persons from that country. As Secretary, she clearly had both actual and constructive notice about these practices from many nations. Yet, Hillary Clinton failed to fulfill her duty to use this authority and stop this practice, even once. For most nations, using this authority will get compliance in short order. Of course, there are many other diplomatic and financial actions the United States can take to promptly end the refusals and delays.

While the full scope of this problem and all of the crimes may not be known to the public, the available information is disturbing.

The Boston Globe has reported that between 2008 and 2014, almost 13,000 convicted aliens that should have been detained until deported, were released onto our streets, resulting in numerous totally preventable rapes, assaults and murders, among other crimes. For example, a convicted criminal alien who should have been deported to Haiti in 2012 was instead released, and murdered 25-year-old Casey Chadwick just last year. The Boston Globe further reported that, out of the data it analyzed, there were more convicted killers released from 2008 to 2012 than traffic violators.

Hillary Clinton must explain to the American people, and especially to the victims of these criminal aliens who were not deported, why she did not act to prevent these tragic events.

Jeff Sessions represents Alabama in the United States Senate, where he is chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest.

Oregon Department of Corrections: Criminal Alien Report September 2016

NOTE:  For fiscal year 2016, the cost to the Dept. of Corrections to incarcerate 955 criminal aliens will be well over $30 million dollars!  And, this amount doesn't even include the costs for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.

When open borders advocates tell us that illegal immigration is good for our economy, I don't think they are factoring in all the costs of their presence in our state. 

Furthermore, for every crime listed below, there is most often an innocent victim left behind.

Our elected officials must be held accountable for such an irresponsible lack of action to correct this travesty.  Ask your candidates what they propose to do, if elected, to correct this devastating problem.  Learn more about the candidates and their positions on illegal immigration and how to solve it.

The Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) September 1, 2016 Inmate Population Profile indicated there were 14,685 inmates incarcerated in the DOC’s 14 prisons.

Data obtained from the DOC indicated that on September 1st there were 955 foreign nationals (criminal aliens) incarcerated in the state’s prison system; more than one in every sixteen prisoners incarcerated by the state was a criminal alien, 6.50 percent of the total prison population.

Some background information, all 955 criminal aliens currently incarcerated in the DOC prison system were identified by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal law enforcement agency that is part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. If an inmate is identified by ICE as being a criminal alien, at the federal law enforcement agency’s request, DOC officials will place an “ICE detainer” on the inmate. After the inmate completes his/her state sanction, prison officials will transfer custody of the inmate to ICE.

Using DOC Inmate Population Profiles and ICE detainer numbers, the following table reveals the total number inmates, the number of domestic and criminal alien inmates along with the percentage of them with ICE detainers incarcerated on September 1st in the state’s prisons.

Beyond the DOC criminal alien incarceration numbers and incarceration percentages, per county and per crime type, or even country of origin, criminal aliens pose high economic cost on Oregonians.

An individual prisoner incarcerated in the DOC prison system costs the state approximately ($94.55) per day.

The DOC’s incarceration cost for its 955 criminal alien prison population is approximately ($90,295.25) per day, ($632,066.75) per week, and ($32,957,766.25) per year.

Even taking into account fiscal year 2015 U.S. Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) award of $1,602,510.00, if the State of Oregon receives the same amount of SCAAP funding for fiscal year 2016, the cost to incarcerate 955 criminal aliens to the DOC will be at least ($31,355,256.25).

None of preceding cost estimates for the DOC to incarcerate the 955 criminal aliens includes the dollar amount for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.

Oregon Department of Corrections: Criminal Alien Report June 2016

The Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) June 2016 Inmate Population Profile indicated there were 14,709 inmates incarcerated in the DOC's 14 prisons.

Data obtained from the DOC indicated that on June 1st there were 954 foreign nationals (criminal aliens) incarcerated in the state's prison system; more than one in every sixteen prisoners incarcerated by the state was a criminal alien, 6.48 percent of the total prison population.

Some background information, all 954 criminal aliens currently incarcerated in the DOC prison system were identified by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal law enforcement agency that is part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. If an inmate is identified by ICE as being a criminal alien, at the federal law enforcement agency's request, DOC officials will place an "ICE detainer" on the inmate. After the inmate completes his/her state sanction, prison officials will transfer custody of the inmate to ICE.

Using DOC Inmate Population Profiles and ICE detainer numbers, the following table reveals the total number inmates, the number of domestic and criminal alien inmates along with the percentage of them with ICE detainers incarcerated on June 1st in the state's prisons.

Oregon man's story propels sanctuary movement among Lutheran churches

The knock came at 7:30 a.m., just as Francisco Aguirre was about to take a shower.

His 18-year-old son was the one who opened the door and saw the uniformed immigration officers standing on the front porch...

On some level, Aguirre had known this could happen, given his recent arrest for drunk driving. He pulled out his cell phone and made a call.

Soon, about 15 church volunteers appeared on his front lawn, got Aguirre into a car and rushed him to Augustana Lutheran Church in Northeast Portland...

He was an undocumented immigrant from El Salvador. He had crossed the American border in 1995 and became an advocate for immigrant rights. Now, he was at Augustana seeking sanctuary from U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement – the first person in Oregon to do so in recent history....

Two years later, Aguirre's first, fitful night of sleep in Augustana catalyzed the burgeoning sanctuary movement among Oregon's Lutheran churches. And it may soon have ripple effects across the country.

The sanctuary movement is nothing new. In the 1980s, houses of worship opened their doors and offered Central American refugees shelter in a time when their native countries were falling apart...

At the time, he was one of six people nationwide seeking security in a holy place. Next week, Oregon's Lutheran churches will spur a vote on the practice...

Augustana has called itself a sanctuary congregation since 1996, when the current pastor assumed his position, though Aguirre was the first and last to make use of this designation.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement likely won't touch undocumented immigrants if they're in a house of worship...

But the concept of sanctuary has critics, some of whom say it allows churches to help potentially dangerous immigrants break the law and remain in the country illegally.

In May, the U.S. Department of Justice dropped its charge of illegal re-entry against Aguirre. Sixteen years prior, he had been found guilty of selling drugs and sent back to El Salvador, but he said he stayed there for just six hours before setting out again toward Oregon.

The drug charge? Officials said he was selling heroin. Aguirre said he let two men who didn't have a place to stay into his home, and the drugs belonged to them.

As for immediately leaving El Salvador, the murder capital of the world? Well, he said, staying there was a death sentence.

Over the next decade, Aguirre worked as an organizer with a nonprofit helping day laborers find work. But a drunk driving charge in 2014 put him back on ICE's radar and drove him to Augustana that September...

But about two months ago, the United States again ordered Aguirre's deportation, said lawyer Steven Manning. The federal immigration agency still considers him an "enforcement priority due to his aggravated felony drug trafficking conviction, prior removal and subsequent illegal reentry," said spokeswoman Rose Richeson.

Manning filed a lawsuit against the removal order, and Aguirre is seeking an asylum screening to determine if he can stay in the U.S.

"He can stay until both of those are resolved," Manning said, adding, "he has a great case on both ends."

If all works out in his favor, Aguirre hopes to go into a seminary. If it doesn't, he said, he'll go back to Augustana.

"I'd like to finally become a pastor and find a way to better help the immigrant community," said Aguirre, 36. "That's my passion."

And though Aguirre no longer lives in small basement room below Augustana's sanctuary, the church has continued to fight for him — and the larger movement that Aguirre symbolizes in Oregon.

"We took on Goliath, we took on ICE," said Augustana's Rev. Mark Knutson. "We're a little church on the corner, and we're on the verge of something really incredible."

'Whereas, Mary, Joseph and Jesus were refugees'

Knutson stood before about 300 representatives of various Lutheran churches from all over Oregon during their annual assembly in May. He recounted Aguirre's story and the positive impact the man had on his congregation.

And then he called on Oregon Lutherans to declare themselves the first "Sanctuary Synod" in the nation.

The resolution, which passed overwhelmingly, encourages the state's 115 Lutheran congregations and ministries to become sanctuaries and prepare to "protect refugees and undocumented sisters and brothers from arrest and deportation by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers."

It wouldn't have happened without Aguirre, said Oregon Bishop Dave Brauer-Rieke.

"Francisco gave Augustana the opportunity to live out their faith, and then Augustana gave that opportunity to Oregon's Lutheran churches at a whole," he said. "Whenever you put the face of a real person on an issue, it impacts us. That's very clearly the case here."...

Church leaders and community activists met almost nightly to strategize about Aguirre's situation, and they decided they'd use the long-standing church bell as a warning signal in case something went wrong. If he rang it, neighborhood volunteers would come running.

"The congregation was totally on board," Knutson said. "People here understand that you're part of the congregation, and you can't be afraid to step out in faith."

Augustana is looking to get a new clapper for its 600-pound bell. Knutson said he plans to have it made out of melted-down guns.

'The political winds'

Next week, the Oregon Synod will take their resolution from May and go before the national assembly of Lutherans in New Orleans. They'll ask the church to become the first "Sanctuary Denomination" in the U.S.

Brauer-Rieke has little hope it'll pass.

"We haven't really educated about the issue," he said. "While Lutherans nationwide are pretty pro-immigrant, there are churches from Texas and the southern states which have some pretty strong feelings about immigration."

And there are still some concerns among church leaders that participating in sanctuary puts them at risk.

"Some people were offended," Brauer-Rieke said. "They say you're asking us to do something illegal. I responded by saying that there's nothing illegal about this and we're not forcing anyone to do anything."

The bishop isn't discouraged. He just hopes to put the idea out there so more action is possible later on. After all, he said, the issue is one that's part of the denomination's DNA: Following World War II, one in six Lutherans worldwide were refugees or displaced persons.

"There are many Lutherans for whom these immigrant stories are no more than a grandma and grandpa away," Brauer-Rieke said.

The movement is not without critics. It came under fire last year after a 45-year-old man from Mexico, who was deported five times, was arrested for killing a woman in San Francisco, where he was protected under sanctuary.

"It creates problems when organizations like churches take it upon themselves to prevent ICE from doing their job, especially when it's a job that protects the public at large," said Jessica Vaughan, policy studies director at the Washington, D.C-based think tank Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates limiting immigration.

But people like Knutson promise to continue offering protection in the church. He's seen what happens when legal hurdles force immigrants to return to dangerous countries....

Unless there's comprehensive immigration reform, Knutson said, the movement will keep growing.

"Listen to the political winds," Knutson said. "Unless we change our laws, there will be a thousand people seeking sanctuary in the upcoming years." Read more about Oregon man's story propels sanctuary movement among Lutheran churches

Beyond the DOC criminal alien incarceration numbers and incarceration percentages, per county and per crime type, or even country of origin, criminal aliens pose high economic cost on Oregonians.

An individual prisoner incarcerated in the DOC prison system costs the state approximately ($94.55) per day.

The DOC's incarceration cost for its 948 criminal alien prison population is approximately ($89,633.40) per day, ($627,433.80) per week, and ($32,716,191.00) per year...

None of preceding cost estimates for the DOC to incarcerate the 948 criminal aliens includes the dollar amount for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.
