Virginia Illegal-Immigrant Crime Intelligence, 2020–2026

42 unique sourced cases in the Commonwealth. Women and children first. Not a statewide crime census.

Cover of Virginia Illegal-Immigrant Crime Intelligence, 2020-2026

A sourced listing of crimes in Virginia from 2020 through 2026 where the defendant’s immigration status is reported as illegal, unlawfully present, an ICE detainer, or a DHS or court statement.

Unique cases after de-dupe: 42 (27 women and children, 15 other victims). Fifteen of those have a sourced got-off or light-sentence outcome. This is not a complete statewide census of every Virginia crime, and it is not a count of every immigrant. Alleged is not convicted.
