GREELEY, Colorado -- It was standing room only inside the Island Grove Regional Park 4H building on Tuesday night for a forum on illegal immigration.
There are an estimated 12 million suspected illegal immigrants in the United States. When they enter the country, immigration laws are broken. Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck says some of the illegal immigrants go on to commit violent crimes.
"We have a case here where someone committed six DUIs under three different names in Weld County, and that person wasn't deported. They went out and committed vehicular homicide and killed somebody and that person left behind a wife and children," said Buck.
Buck organized a special forum held Tuesday titled "Illegal immigration: The untold stories."
About 500 people showed up at the meeting.
