Regarding an immigrant committing a crime not related to their status here, I am not very familiar with the process in such case. Again, if the immigrant is illegal, then they can be deported simply due to their status; the fact of committing a crime does not change much.
But if, say, the court somehow misses the fact that they are staying on the US territory illegally, yet still recognises them as an immigrant, then, if I am correct, they can be put in jail for the period decided by the court, after which, again, deportation is likely to follow, although it does not have to. I believe the judge has a lot of room in choosing the sentence here, and I have heard of many different cases. Someone tried to bribe a police officer at a traffic stop and was sentenced for 6 months in the "jail for immigrants", deported afterwards. Someone else stole something from a fashion shop and got away with a small fine.
I do not think much change compared to the current system is needed. Although the personal bias of judges could be reduced some. The fact of the matter is, someone's immigration status often factors in the verdict and the sentence decided by the court - while ideally, only the crime itself should be a factor, with the immigration status being completely irrelevant to the case.

A few years ago, someone said: "I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here, even though, some time back, they may have entered illegally." I disagreed with this man often, but here I agree. The man's name was Ronald Reagan. My, how the GOP leadership has changed. Is authoritarianism raising its ugly head in the United States of America. (I won't use a "?" here:( )

Should all illegal immigrants be deported?
The reason I answered that is because of the "status" of that person. I understand that that person might not be documented but in some cases, they might have extreme reasons to do so. Such as a refugee status. I know that you can apply for one BUT sometimes that time for it to be accepted can take multiple months that's why that in this particular situation I don't think they should be deported. Of courses, consequences can always be given, but the "deported" part is too far. It's a live or die game.
