Does Border Enforcement Reduce Violent Crime? with Ken W. Good

Does Border Enforcement Reduce Violent Crime? with Ken W. Good

Author: The Atlas Society October 2, 2025 Duration: 57:07

Are deportations driving down violent crime in America? Some supporters are crediting the sharp increase in deportations for what could soon be the lowest U.S. murder rate on record. On the other hand, critics strongly argue that deportation sweeps unfairly target non-violent offenders and create fear within immigrant communities, discouraging victims and witnesses from cooperating with law enforcement.

Join Atlas Society CEO Jennifer Grossman for the 271st episode of Objectively Speaking when she interviews bail attorney Ken W. Good on the intersection of bail, crime, and immigration enforcement policies.
