Can both be true? "Truth" and reality in politics often have nothing to do with one-an-other.

Trac only shows convictions these 2 years. illegals with criminal pasts might come from convictions numerous years ago.

"Overall, in FY 2011 ICE's Office of Enforcement and Removal Operations removed 396,906 individuals — the largest number in the agency's history. Of these, nearly 55 percent or 216,698 of the people removed were convicted of felonies or misdemeanors (tracs description is felonies and crimes) — an 89 percent increase in the removal of criminals since FY 2008. This includes (but is not limited to)1,119 aliens convicted of homicide; 5,848 aliens convicted of sexual offenses; 44,653 aliens convicted of drug related crimes; and 35,927 aliens convicted of driving under the influence. ICE achieved similar results with regard to other categories prioritized for removal. Ninety percent of all ICE's removals fell into a priority category and more than two-thirds of the other removals in 2011 were either recent border crossers or repeat immigration violators"
