Curious about the goings-on at the McHenry County (Ill.) Jail in regard to its occupancy by "detainees" who are there courtesy of the Federal Government.
Check out this report: http://trac.syr.edu/immigration/detention/200803/MCHENIL/exit/#.TtL9_IdCZfM.email
The first problem with the report is its undated nature. It merely says "For the most recent 12 month period for which data are available..."
Some were transferred elsewhere; some were deported; some were released because they "won" their cases and successfully avoided deportation.
In the past decade there were 1,528 facilities, but that number had been cut to 654. From the report, "... the Mchenry (sic) County Sheriff's Facility last year ranked in the top 11 percent nationwide in the number of individuals leaving ICE detention"
Imagine what the cost must have been to the Federal Government (that's us, folks) for 1,528 facilities to house detainees. And for the 654 facilities still operating. This is a somewhat-hidden cost of the illegal immigration problem.
