Immigration detainers ICE issued to jails and prisons in Georgia, October 2022 through 6 August 2026, from the ICE detai

Immigration detainers ICE issued to jails and prisons in Georgia, October 2022 through 6 August 2026, from the ICE detainer records released under FOIA (Hausman v. ICE) and published by the Deportation Data Project. Most are I-247A detainers asking a jail to hold someone up to 48 hours past release so ICE can take custody; about a fifth are I-247G requests for advance notification of release, which ask for notice rather than a hold. Counts of detainers issued, declined by the receiving agency, and honored (the person booked into ICE detention), by calendar month, ICE's gender determination, criminal history at issuance, the ICE program that issued the detainer, and citizenship country at state level; annual totals by the receiving jail's county.
