ISLAND NEWS The U.S. deported 792 Dominicans so far this year

Santo Domingo .- The United States Immigration Service repatriated 56 Dominicans today, bringing to 792 the number of returnees so far this year, after serving time for various crimes.


Newspaper El Nacional reports that 70 percent of the deportees by the U.S. authorities were convicted of drug trafficking.


Dominican Immigration at Las Americas Airport and a U.S. Embassy official said the 56 Dominicans arrived at 2 p.m. Wednesday, on a plane chartered by the Immigration Service.



THE TRUTH4REAL:-Here we go again judging without knowing these people! Not all of them are horrible career criminals and felons. What about the ones falsely convicted? . Most of them are not murderers and child molesters. Did you know that just a 1 year sentence for permanent legal residents means almost certain deportation? It doesn't even have to be a serious crime or a felony. I think that US immigration is very unfair. They don't care if the legal resident has been here since childhood. Their only goal is to get rid of as many brown non-citizens as possible!!
