Original Note:
Claims that Venezuela is sending prisoners to the US border originated in a 2022 Breitbart article: https://www.breitbart.com/border/2022/09/18/exclusive-venezuela-empties-prisons-sends-violent-criminals-to-u-s-says-dhs-report/ The article offers no evidence in support of this claim. A Politifact investigation failed to find any evidence to support this claim. https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/sep/29/fact-checking-claim-about-venezuela-sending-prison/
