Making the case that sanctuary cities don't exist in Nebraska, federal officials today noted five recent Hispanic deportation cases that followed arrests by local law enforcement officials.

Two cases where individuals were convicted of re-entering the U.S. after being deported were also cited as proof of federal, state and local cooperation in Nebraska reflected in the Trump Administration's promises to crack-down on illegal immigration.

The U.S. Attorney for Nebraska says without that "solid cooperation" many dangerous criminals would have been released across the state.

The Justice Department also released national numbers for 2019 that find individuals in the country illegally convicted of 1,900 homicides, 10,000 sex offenses and 45,000 assaults along with 74,000 successful drunk driving prosecutions.
