This book is about the effect of U.S. Illegal Immigration Reform
and Immigrant Responsibilities Act (IIRIRA of 1996) and criminal
deportation to Jamaica, the issues associated with deportees
resettlement and re-integration, and increased crime and violence
in Jamaica which the police and several policy-makers claimed
deportees are responsible for. It also represents a dedicated
attempt to bridge both lines of inquiry between increased criminal
deportation and increased crime and violence in Jamaica, wherein
criminal deportees are constantly being blamed for the high murder
rate in the country. Based on six years of studies, I find that
there are two types of criminal deported migrants and over seven
different categories of us and I write in details about the
categories. A number of them are unreformed or dangerous and are
involved in criminal activities, while the majority are law abiding
citizens. Quite a few have tertiary degrees and meaningful skills
and experiences and can contribute to the society, but they are
highly marginalized. I write about the issues that we faced, the
problems that some have caused, and how I was abducted or
unlawfully arrested, wrongfully prosecuted, unlawfully convicted,
sentenced to a term of imprisonment, and then wrongfully deported
to Jamaica-even though I am a veteran of the US Army with a
service-connected injury. A 'must read' edition.
