"According to agency data obtained by the UC Berkeley School of Law's Deportation Data Project, people without criminal charges or convictions made up an average of 47% of daily ICE arrests in early June."
"The spike in non-criminal ICE arrests occurred just after the Trump administration directed ICE to increase daily arrests from 1,000 to at least 3,000."
Data shows that in early June, 47% of daily ICE arrests were individuals without criminal charges or convictions, a rise from 21% in early May. Daily arrests peaked at around 930, with 42% involving those without criminal records. This increase in non-criminal arrests coincided with the Trump administration’s order to raise ICE arrests to 3,000 per day. Despite claims of targeting criminals, a significant portion of those arrested had no prior convictions, leading to disputes over the accuracy of arrest categorization.
