However, the rate of &#8220;got-aways&#8221; has increased, indicating that more people are crossing the border illegally without being caught.<\/p>\n<h3>Statistics<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>In the week leading up to the pandemic-era policy Title 42 ending on May 11, Border Patrol agents apprehended 67,759 people and observed approximately 15,780 people who crossed illegally but got away.<\/li>\n<li>In the week following Title 42&#8217;s ending, agents encountered 55% fewer people, 28,473, yet observed 9,571 people cross and then get away.<\/li>\n<li>Roughly 1 person evaded police for every 4.3 who were caught before Title 42 ended, and roughly 1 person evaded police for every 2.5 intercepted after Title 42 ended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These statistics suggest that the number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-press-secretary-forgets-biden-signed-executive-order-to-resume-catch-and-release\/\" title=\"White House press secretary forgets Biden signed executive order to resume \u2018catch and release\u2019\">illegal immigrants crossing<\/a> the border has decreased, but those who do cross are more likely to evade police.<\/p>\n<h3>Possible Reasons<\/h3>\n<p>An immigration policy expert at the Washington Office on Latin America proposed that the decrease in the percentage of immigrants seeking asylum may be a reason for the increase in &#8220;got-aways.&#8221; Asylum seekers often surrender to Border Patrol, but those who are not seeking asylum may be less likely to turn themselves in.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Isacson, WOLA&#8217;s director for defense insight, tweeted, &#8220;Why is Border Patrol reporting a much higher % of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/el-paso-clears-out-migrant-camps-ahead-of-biden-visit\/\" title=\"El Paso Clears Out Migrant Camps Ahead Of Biden Visit\">migrants evading apprehension<\/a> (&#8216;got-aways&#8217;) now, when there are far fewer migrants? My guess: a steep drop in asylum seekers due to the new rule, leaving a migrant population who are far less likely to want to turn themselves in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Consequences<\/h3>\n<p>The ending of Title 42 also means tougher consequences for entering the country without authorization. Illegal immigrants caught after May 12 will face a five-year ban on applying through lawful admission avenues, making it more desirable to get in without incident on one&#8217;s first attempt.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, while the number of illegal immigrants crossing the border has decreased, the increase in &#8220;got-aways&#8221; suggests that the situation is still far from under control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to read more from the Washington Examiner.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Illegal immigration from Mexico to the US has decreased in the past two weeks, but the number of &#8220;got-aways&#8221; has risen.
