Immigration Reform Advocates: Both quantitative and qualitative evidence that criminal deportations are often not in concordance with ICE policies, priorities and rhetoric.
Concerns
Apprehension Priorities for Fugitive Operations Teams
1Fugitives posing a threat to the nation
2Fugitives posing a threat to the community
3Fugitive with a violent criminal history
4Fugitive aliens with a criminal conviction
5Fugitive aliens with no criminal conviction

Right to Family
• Children’s Rights

Research Objectives1. To estimate the scope of potential human
rights law violations that may have occurred through criminal deportations.
2. To estimate the extent to which the deportations were in concordance with ICE enforcement policy, priorities and rhetoric.

Primary Dataset
• Received from DHS via FOIA• Complete Population: All 897,099 non-citizens
deported for criminal behavior, or with a criminal conviction, between 4/1/1997 and 9/1/2007.
• Five Variables:– Immigration Status– Nationality– Country Deported to– Date of Deportation– Crime Data
![Page 16: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Secondary Data Sources• American Community Surveys:
Personal Characteristic Variables for Non-citizens.
• Nationally Representative Annual Survey ~170K Non-citizen Respondents.
• For 1997-1999, will use 2000 Survey.• Will Stratify by Year of
survey/Deportation and by Nationality to increase accuracy.
• Limitations: No variables for Immigration Status or Criminal History.
![Page 17: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
American Community Surveys:
• Provide data for personal characteristic variables.• Family Life: Children, Family size, etc.• Military Service: Length of Service• Community Ties• Personal Demography: Age, Language
Spoken, Years in US, etc.• Income, employment.
![Page 18: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Secondary Data Sources
• BOP Prison Data: Personal and Crime Characteristic Variables for Non-citizens in Federal Prison
• Includes all non-citizens in Federal prison at year-end ~ 45,000 individuals.
• Will stratify by year nationality and crime.
• Limitations: only Federal facilities, cannot determine whether BOP non-citizens were deported.

• Human Rights Watch/Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) Data on Detainee Transfers: Personal Characteristics and Process Variables for all non-citizens in ICE detention.
• Data from ~ 200 ICE detention facilities.• Limits: Includes non-criminal detainees,
must use analyzed data.

Research Hypotheses
![Page 22: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Exemplar Hypothesis – Human Rights
• Hypothesis: Children’s rights to family were violated by the deportation of non-citizens for criminal behavior.
• Methodology: Provide quantitative evidence of the scope of criminal deportations that may have affected children left behind in the US.
• Analysis: Use proxy data. Determine rate of deportees that were likely parents. Develop estimates of family size, and # of children of certain ages.
![Page 23: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Exemplar Hypothesis – Human Rights
• Hypothesis: Deported legally-present non-citizens that did not commit serious crimes may have had the right to proportionality in punishment violated.
• Methodology: Provide descriptive evidence of the typical criminal punishment that is meted out to both citizens and non-citizens for specific crimes and then estimate the additional potential immigration consequences.
• Analysis: Apply “Average Criminal Sentence” variable to each crime. Create categorical grouping variables based on crime data for additional punishment. Provide descriptive evidence in cross-tabulation.
![Page 24: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Exemplar Hypothesis - Policy• Hypothesis: The frequency of criminal
deportations is negatively correlated with non-citizens incarcerated in federal facilities and with non-citizen crime.
• Methodology: Provide descriptive statistics and correlation tests on deportation data and DOJ data on non-citizens in federal and state facilities.
• Analysis: Create annual, per-capita rate of criminality for non-citizens. Run Pearson’s correlation tests comparing deportation rates with per-capita criminal rate and non-citizen prison population.
![Page 25: Prospectus presentation b_root](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55500f09b4c905af648b47ed/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Exemplar Hypothesis - Policy• Hypothesis: Deportations of criminal non-
citizens were not reflective of ICE enforcement priorities (tiered levels of deportation priorities based on criminality and immigration status).
• Methodology: Determine whether ICE deported low-priority non-citizens despite presence of higher priority criminal non-citizens.
• Analysis: Annual per-capita rates of non-citizens entering/leaving prison will be used to determine whether trends of non-citizen criminality. Descriptive statistics will describe the criminality of those deported and determine whether criminal deportations vary annually while non-citizen criminality remains consistent.

Exemplar Hypothesis - Policy• Hypothesis: Changes in budgeting and staff resulted in changes in the frequency of deportation of non-citizens for criminal behavior.
• Methodology: Descriptive statistics examining expenditures per criminal deportee deported.
• Analysis: Annual budget and staffing statistics will be examined in relation to crime data of deportees to determine whether increased budgets and staff result in an increase in deportations by crime level.
