The Department of Justice has released new quarterly numbers, as required through an executive order signed by President Trump earlier this year, detailing how many foreign born individuals are currently incarcerated in the U.S. federal prison system.
According to the numbers, one-in-five individuals were born outside of the U.S. and a significant number are illegal aliens. From the Alien Incarceration Report:
A total of 58,766 known or suspected aliens were in in DOJ custody at the end of FY 2017, including 39,455 persons in BOP custody and 19,311 in USMS custody.
Of this total, 37,557 people had been confirmed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be aliens (i.e., non-citizens and non-nationals), while 21,209 foreign-born people were still under investigation by ICE to determine alienage.
Among the 37,557 confirmed aliens, 35,334 people (94 percent) were unlawfully present. These numbers include a 92 percent unlawful rate among 24,476 confirmed aliens in BOP custody and a 97 percent unlawful rate among 13,081 confirmed aliens in USMS custody.
This report does not include data on the foreign-born or alien populations in state prisons and local jails.

“A nation that cannot control its borders is not a nation.” ― Ronald Reagan
It is worse than that, since at least 1980 at Leavenworth and many other institutions the mexican population realized that if you keep pissing off the judges they can get 2-5 years in a federal prison with unicor and you can earn 4- 500 a month working in the prison factory they get piece work pay, longevity etc. And the can send it all home to the family and retire when released. Being an inmate gets free room and board ,clothes ,laundry ,recreation and free medical care no matter what condition, everything they would have to pay for out of pocket on the street.
Obviously, the cops, prosecutors and judges are profiling. /s
