According to the Transactional Records Clearinghouse, or TRAC (affiliated with Syracuse University), Immigration and Customs Enforcement held 56,397 immigrants in detention as of June 15. That's the most since the non-profit, non-partisan research organization began tracking those numbers in May 2019.
However, TRAC suggests those held are not "the worst of the worst," as this administration claims to target.
TRAC said 71.7% have never been convicted of a crime, and that number goes even higher when you include those with minor offenses, like traffic violations.
