Two OC jails will house federal immigration detainees

By Richard Binder

ADVERTISEMENTS

More than 800 federal immigration detainees will now be housed at the James A. Musick Facility near Irvine and the Theo Lacy Facility in Orange, thanks to a contract approved by Orange County supervisors on Tuesday.  The move will also bring in more than $30 million a year and help save jobs in the Sheriff's Department.

The five-year contract will bring in about $31 million for the current fiscal year and $35 million each for the next four years, at a daily rate of $118 per detainee. The Sheriff's Department will get $94.15 of that and the remaining $23.85 will go to the Orange County Health Care Agency, which will provide medical and mental health services.

The money will help the Sheriff's Department offset a projected $65-million budget shortfall next year and stave off additional cutbacks and layoffs.
