Ron DeSantis actually said...

"To me, that's a major failure. Because if I were somebody whose family member was victimized by a crime, I would want to know: Well, wait a minute. You guys should have known."

"A criminal conviction for, say, aggravated assault, that's not looking into the future, that's looking into the past."

"The problem, though, is, is if they're going and they're being convicted and then ICE knows that they're not here legally, and we know they're convicts, and yet they still get released into society."

"if DHS is then going to release people who have been proven to be a danger to society into the public, well, then that leaves more Americans to be victimized by, in some cases, very violent crimes."
