Illegal immigrants responsible for almost three-fourths of federal drug possession sentences in 2014

Illegal immigrants responsible for almost three-fourths of federal drug possession sentences in 2014 | Washington Examiner:
"Of the more than 2,200 people who received federal sentences for drug possession in fiscal year 2014, almost three-quarters of them were illegal immigrants, according to new data from the United States Sentencing Commission.
Illegal immigrants also made up more than one-third of all federal sentences, that data said.
The commission's data showed a slight decline in the total number of illegal alien sentences from 2013 to 2014, but still showed that the illegal population is a major contributor to federal crimes in America."
