In July of 2019, 35 percent of detained immigrants at the Hudson facility had no criminal convictions, according to data analyzed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University. The majority of those with criminal convictions, 27 percent, were convicted of only a misdemeanor or petty violation. Nine percent had level 2 offenses, which are primarily property crimes, according to ICE. In 2019, 30 percent of immigrants at the facility had a level 1 offense, which include more serious crimes such as national security violations, homicide, kidnapping, and sexual assault, ICE has said in its operating procedures.
