SENDING THEM BACK <\/strong><\/p>\n

Removals of illegal immigrants doubled last year in the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s three-state region based in Atlanta. Part of the reason was the opening of a new detention center in south Georgia; illegal immigrants are sent there from several parts of the country, but their removals are counted as being from the Atlanta region. ICE spokesman Richard Rocha also credited greater cooperation with local law enforcement agencies with driving up the numbers. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
