If the person involved is not a citizen of the U.S, does that mean we prosecute and Jail them for the rest of their term.?

You don't think she would come right back through our inadaquate border security? That's like shooing flies out a window you don't bother to shut.

How much does this cost the U.S to keep an inmate for their entire life in prison if they are 27 and live till 76( average age of dying).

Answer 1,358,500.00

Some one could buy a house in Palo Alto.

Is the cost worth allowing this person to continue poisoning Americans? The fact she may not be a citizen further inflames me. Americans need to put a stop to illeagal immigration and drug traffecking from Mexico. Even if that means putting them in a prison for the rest of their lives. In my opinion, build more prisons and get tougher on drug traffeckers. Your $1,358,500.00 is a drop in the bucket americans spend everyday buying drugs. Why don't you run the figures on the cost drug users cost americans everday in the crimes they commit to support a habbit. Not to mention the healthcare costs.
