States went to fill the void. While the overall number may seem small. and perhaps not even indicative of a national problem. let us evaluate the situation on a StatebyState basis. The single greatest negative impact these incarcerated illegals pose is their addition to an already overcrowded State prison system. Consider my home State of New York which is reliably estimated to have some 966 illegal aliens incarcerated in its system. These individuals occupy 966 spaces in a State prison system that already holds 3.000 more inmates than its capacity safely permits. Yet this is not peculiar to New York.
