There are now almost 60,000 criminal migrants in New York City, according to new figures from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The figures, reviewed by The New York Post, show that there are 58.000 illegal migrants who are criminals or are facing criminal charges.
As The Post states, “Of the 759,218 illegal-border crossers living in the Big Apple the feds were aware of as of Nov. 17, a jaw-dropping 58,626—7.7%—were either previously convicted of crimes or had criminal charges pending.”
In addition, of those 58,626 migrants, over a thousand are suspected or known gang members.
Back in September, ICE officials told The Post that 75% of people arrested in Midtown Manhattan for serious crimes including assault and robbery are migrants.
The problem is now so bad that New York Governor Kathy Hochul has stated she is willing to work with the Trump administration to deport criminal migrants.
