There was a report over the weekend that something close to 50% of the initial deportees had no criminal record. Could be wrong, could be right. I don't know who has accurate numbers. But even Tom Homan said there will be "collateral damage".
So yeah, it's more likely than not that fruit pickers are getting caught up in the deportations.
