Florida's state attorney, Ashley Moody, filed a complaint last Tuesday demanding more information from the federal administration of Joe Biden-Kamala Harris regarding the policies that allow the release of "criminal immigrants" who are coming out of U.S. prisons.

According to Efe, this demand aligns with the lack of response to the formal request made in March by Florida, where it seeks to know the reasons that prevent the deportation of immigrants who have served their sentences in the country's prisons.

Once they are released from prison, the "dangerous illegal immigrants," as the prosecutor describes them, are not deported to their countries of origin, it points out in the claim.

"We demand to know the reasons why the Biden Administration is releasing illegal foreign criminals from U.S. prisons directly into the interior, instead of deporting them back to their country of origin," stated the state attorney in her communication last March, where she alleged that the federal Administration "is fully aware" of the entry of prisoners from other countries through the U.S.-Mexico border.

Moreover, the official has noted that, to date, since her request, supported by the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), has not been fulfilled, it indicates that the White House "will not provide documents that show this dangerous and illegal plan in a timely manner."

Likewise, Moody requests to see the records supporting a denial by the authorities of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the federal bureau of prisons regarding the custody of immigrants released from prisons.

The prosecutor cited as an example an alleged takeover of an apartment complex in Colorado by a "foreign criminal gang," attributed to the transnational gang Tren de Aragua, an event that has been denied by local police, although the existence of such criminal elements was not disputed.

In the midst of the election period in the United States, immigration has been a key point between the two candidates for the White House, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.

Specifically, the Republican Party approved an electoral program last July that includes carrying out the largest deportation of migrants in the country's history if their candidate, Trump, wins the presidential elections on the upcoming November 5.

At the beginning of May, the former president had already anticipated that he would carry out the largest deportation operation if he were elected.

Even the Republican candidate has accused, without official evidence, Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador, of sending criminals to the United States as part of his strategy to reduce crime in the Central American nation.
