According to official data, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deported 315,943 immigrants in 2014. 98% of them could even be banished from the United States.

Every year, something similar happens. The ICE deports millions of immigrants back to their countries. Most of them are undocumented, but others are permanent residents (green card holders).

There are many reasons that justify a deportation. The ICE gives priority to immigrants who have committed the following crimes:

  • Murder
  • Rape
  • Drug trafficking and arms smuggling
  • Domestic violence
  • People smuggling
  • Illegal entry in the United States
