The increase in murders of around 30% - 50% nationwide and overcrowding in prisons due to mass incarcerations and harsh sentences for low level non-violent drug offenses, triggered the federal Bureau of Prisons to release around 6,000 inmates later this month. Last year the U.S. sentencing commission lowered maximum sentences for drug offenders. 1/3 of the 6,000 to be released are illegal immigrants and will be deported.
