Reader Assigns Patch Reporters to Dig Up Illegal Immigration Facts

A Temecula Patch reader assigned reporters to answer questions about illegal immigration.

A reader assigned the Temecula Patch editorial staff to do a story about illegal immigration.

The assignment came from Claire White, a Temecula resident new to the area.

She wrote, “I have recently moved here (and) am curious as to the actual statistics on the amount of arrests and convictions (related to illegal immigration) and what they are for – drugs, human smuggling, property crime, violent crime, etcetera.”

She also asked about the effect of illegal immigration. “I would like to know about the actual statistics on illegal immigration and the impact it has on the schools, hospitals, businesses, police force, etcetera.”
