Daily average of known gotaways at southern border plummets, down 93% from Biden administration highs
Fox News
The average daily number of known gotaways at the southern border has dropped 93% since President Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office.
President Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20, and has taken extensive measures to secure the southern border, resulting in a 93% drop in the daily average of known gotaways, who are "known" because they are seen/tracked on cameras, sensors, or other means, but border patrol agents were not able to apprehend them. These numbers are kept internally by CBP and are typically not released to the public. Bill Melugin currently serves as a Los Angeles based correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC).

"Delivering consequences has results. Illegal crossings are down, gotaways are down. Criminal prosecutions are on the rise," the senior DHS official told Fox News. "Daily reports of large groups in Mexico, Guatemala, turning back south and surrendering to authorities, requesting to go home, and we have only just begun. Policy matters."
