Migrants detained under President Trump’s renewed immigration enforcement policies at Guantanamo Bay include convicted criminals with records of rape, child sexual abuse, murder, and drug trafficking, according to a recent Department of Homeland Security (DHS) press release. These individuals, all with final deportation orders, represent some of the most dangerous illegal aliens currently in U.S. custody.
U.S. authorities have relocated 40 immigrants from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility to Louisiana, as legal debates intensify over the appropriateness of using the offshore military base for immigration detention.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for its transfers of illegal immigrant criminals to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
