The reason they don't catch many people is because they're fingerprinting tourists and most likely first time visitors to the US. I'm surprised they caught anyone at all.


They're fingerprinting everyone who isn't a US citizen who enters the US.

Repeat visitors are fingerprinted on each visit.


Yes I know, I've been fingerprinted a dozen or so times. I don't know statistics but I would guess the majority are first-time or just connecting which still classes as entering the US.
