Welcome to my first, experimental audio production! What’s the true rate of illegal immigrant crime?
I hope this contains some information you didn’t know before you listened. Please leave your feedback and ideas in the comment section.

Sharyl, Thanks for posting your podcast. Great story. Please note that the Prison Industrial Complex, government and private, have a vested interest in keeping the prison population high. With states legalizing marijuana, that source of inmate is being reduced. Following the money and the lobbying of the Prison Industrial Complex could be a clue why the federal and state prison agencies and crony prison capitalists through elected officials want illegals to continue; to keep the prisons full! Just an idea and maybe a story. Hey I am a trader and have watched some of the private prison stocks slide down since August. If Trump gets his wall, my short positions on some of these will be more profitable. We shall see. Oh, if your podcast is successful consider itunes feed and there are others too.
I enjoy this format and your straight forward delivery. I hope you will continue with your investigative reporting and I look forward to reading and listening to you in the future.
This is a crisis, it is destroying our society. Can you put some light on why the federal govt refuses to stop this and the connection between church, state, corporations, and the mass migration to USA from central america.
DHS also provides statistics on the hundreds of thousands criminal aliens deported each year, about the same proportions in your podcast. dhs.gov/immigration-statistics/yearbook/2016/table41
Thanks very much, Sharyl. I want way more of this digging down for the facts (as best one can) from a consistently reliable source. If you have time, please email me some more of what you would consider reliable sources so I can make it a daily read/listen.
This was good and being on one point keeps it short enough to listen anytime!
Always enjoy seeing and now hearing your reporting. Your investigative reporting style comes across as professional and unbiased. The illegal alien crimes stats are loser to Trumps tweets than the garbage put out by the leftist sympathizers. Thank you for your podcast. I would subscribe to an Attkisson podcast.
Best wishes for a successful new year.
I like it! Please do more. You are great. Thank you.
Thanks Sharyl. I was mostly aware of the #’s from your report on illegal immigrant crimes since I follow you on twitter.
But the finer details – sources and such – were good to hear as well.
I believe you’re doing a great service by reporting unbiased news and information about many subjects. Both my wife and I have been thoroughly frustrated by news that isn’t news but opinions or misrepresentation of facts from so many.
Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Mark
Dear Sharyl:
Thank you for your report on illegal immigration criminal situation. I was informative and “eye-opening”. I appreciated your first attemt at Podcast and would like you to continue.
One topic that came to my mind that I would like to hear more about is: It has been reported that Hillary and Democrats did commit federal crimes, such as Hillary’s use of personal e-mail for government work and illegal deletion and manipulation of data. But why are they not being prosecuted? Why are they not tried and put in prison or taken other punitive actions?
Ms. Attkisson,
I think your audio podcast was good attempt at answering the question that crime is actually somewhat higher rate than among the “legal” population. Another series of facts that show that illegal immigration is actually not a victimless crime. The only other article I saw about the illegal immigration crime rate was a Christian Science Monitor story about the number of illegals in federal custody for actual crimes, 23% of total federal inmates are illegals. I wish your podcast was longer and expanded into details of why both political parties don’t want to solve this issue. Keep up the good work .. I wish I could see your Sunday broadcast but I’m in the black out zone .. live to close to NYC.
There is really nothing scientific about why both political parties refuse to fix illegal immigration. The leftists (a.k.a. the democrats) need illegals for their future voter base. The RINOs (republicans in name only) need illegals for cheap labor for their corporate customers. Who gets stiffed for the bill for all of this, yes, you guessed it – We The People.
It is common sense that every country South of our border would let their criminals out of jail and send them to the US, just as Castro did.
Illegal Alien Pedophiles: 4,317 Charges Filed Against Illegals in ONE YEAR… in ONE STATE (and it’s only our 10th largest) Last data on pedophiles was over 10,000 have entered US.

Nationwide data showing % of illegals that are criminals

Shocking data for FL. Between 2008 and 2014, 40% of all murder convictions in Florida were criminal aliens…while illegal aliens constitute only 5.6% of the total population! (This is because all states North of FL instituted mandatory eVerify, and all illegals in those states flooded into FL, which does NOT have mandatory eVerify.)
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2015/08/08/illegal-alien-crime-accounts-for-over-30-of-murders-in-some-states/
Florida is a de facto sanctuary state, and all FOIA requests to get data on how many illegals were arrested, detained, or turned over to ICE are ignored.
Homeland Security has lots of reports on illegals and the data has been consistent for a decade. A significant portion ~40% have already been convicted of a crime. But even killing Americans in DUI accidents is not a guarantee an illegal will be deported.
In addition, there is are the illegals voting. In US we have 3.5 million more voters than citizens.

Fantastic job Sharyl. Great comment Roger.
Sharyl,
One of TV news orgs. in Atlanta, GA did an TV special report actual count of illegals in GA and prior convictions by conviction. It was either ABC or Fox affiliate and I pretty sure it was FOX affiliate. It was a good count by prior crime committed. I recall there were about 9 illegal immigrants who had been convicted of murder and about 20-30 who had been convicted of rape. Maybe that report would help.
This blows my mind, illegals in US use child credit, for alleged kids in Mexico, and get thousands from IRS! :(

Sheryl – Great job, as always. Keep it up! I love your work exposing media falsehoods. I hope you continue to post podcasts. I’ll definitely be listening.
Excellent job once again. It’s refreshing to hear to real reporting and not spin.
Yay! Been waiting for you to start podcasting! Tired of searching Apple Podcasts in vain for “Sharyl Attkisson,” “Full Measure,” and any other term I can think of that might yield results! Please, please make this an ongoing thing – and make it available on all the usual podcast distribution channels!
Hi Sharyl, nice. I kept thinking with all those stats, how many were NOT reported, and will never be known.
As for future Podcasts, MSM Honesty in reporting? When the MSM stops reporting facts and starts advocating for “A” Political Party…
Good luck.
Great report. We desperately need this type of reporting.
I hope more people in the media follow your lead. We need more information and less propaganda to discern the current events affecting our lives.
Regarding US immigration policy: why have Democrats reversed position with open borders and sanctuary cities? Only a few years ago, politicians like Senator Schumer, former Presidents Obama and Clinton were touting illegal immigration policies similar to President Trump. What changed? Seems like a fascinating investigative journey here…
Thanks for all your great work and Happy New Year!
That was excellent. My liberal family always cites the “illegal immigrants commit fewer crimes on average” bit anytime there is a discussion on it.
Please keep up the great work on this!
Hello Sharyl,
Thank you for your efforts to bring truth to light when most news sources are biased, either by choice or biased by their omission of all the facts.
Hope you continue to do the podcasts. You report the facts in a concise and clear manner….and you have a very pleasant voice.
I will be sending a link to this to all of my friends who I’m sure will find it a breath of fresh air.
Have a Happy and Safe New Year!
Thanks for trying to determine the truth on illegal immigrant crime statistics.
I wish there was another thousand reports out there like Sharyl and that the media would report the truth.
Would like to hear some updte on vaccines and their effects.
I wish she could have a whole organization behind her doing exactly what she is doing, but on an even larger scale. She is gutsy, courageous, and fact-based. America needs her type more than ever!
I agree Fred! That is a great idea-To expand the accurate and unbiased reporting would be wonderful.
And hot! Very hot!
…. A-men.!! .. .. .. .. ..
Thank you! We admire your work and make it a point to follow you when ever possible. Usually Sunday morning. Keep up the hard work because truth is power!
I’m not certain but I think tomorrow’s Full Measure News is on vaccines.
