Heightened enforcement could reduce crime by deterring and incapacitating immigrant offenders or, alternatively, in- crease crime by discouraging victims from reporting offenses. We study the U.S. Secure Communities program, which expanded interior enforcement against unauthorized im- migrants. Using national survey data, we find that the program reduced the likelihood that Hispanic victims reported crimes to police and increased the victimization of Hispanics. Total reported crimes are unchanged, masking these opposing effects. We provide evidence that reduced Hispanic reporting is the key driver of increased victimization. Our findings underscore the importance of trust in institutions as a central determinant of public safety.</span></span></p><p><br></p><p><strong><span style="color:#ffffff"><span style="font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif">Bio:</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="color:#ffffff"><span style="font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif"> Emily Weisburst is an Assistant Professor of Public Policy at the Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California, Los Angeles.
