Since April the jail has held more than 40 detanees of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. This is a new development. The current administration waived special requirements usually needed to house ICE detainees, including provision of services in multiple languages. The Niagara County Sheriff’s Office receives $148 per day, plus reimbursements of expenses.
