State Pardons Board Endorses Deporting Illegal Inmates

The Nevada State Pardons Board has endorsed a plan to release and deport 500 illegal immigrant prisoners.
The idea was first proposed by Supreme Court Justice James Hardesty - a member of the pardons board. He says it would save the state up to $9 million annually.
The board is made up of Governor Jim Gibbons, Attorney General Catherine Cortez-Masto and the seven Supreme Court justices.
The board will meet again next month to finalize the release of the first 154 inmates.
Gibbons says they will only release non-violent offenders.
If they return to the U.S. and are caught, the offenders could face up to 20 years in federal prison.
