U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials admit that at least 124 illegal immigrant criminals released from jails since 2010—thanks to the Obama administration—have since been charged with at least 135 new murders, Fox News reports

According to a document released by ICE in response to congressional inquiries, at least 156 criminal repeat offenders—with some 1,776 convictions for burglary, larceny and other crimes to their credit before their first release from ICE custody—were nonetheless released at least twice by ICE since 2013, and of those, 47 were charged with 106 additional offenses.

Still, the Center for Immigration Studies says, most of these criminal illegal aliens “receive the most generous forms of due process available, and are allowed to remain at large, without supervision, while they await drawn-out immigration hearings.” Too bad the Obama administration doesn’t see fit to extend the same due-process rights to U.S. citizens to protect themselves.
