Detention stints - book-ins to one ICE detention facility in Georgia - from 2022-10-01 through 2026-08-06, aggregated from the person-level detention records ICE released under FOIA (Hausman v. ICE) and the Deportation Data Project processed. A stint is time at ONE facility; a person transferred between facilities has several stints, so this is the facility-level view of detention (use ice_detention_stays for people). Counts of stints begun, stints ended, and the mean stint length in days, by calendar month, ICE's gender determination, which agency's arrest led to the detention (ICE or CBP), how the stint ended (transferred, removed, bonded out, paroled, released on order, other, or still detained), and citizenship country at state level; annual totals by the DETENTION FACILITY'S county - Stewart, Charlton (Folkston), Irwin, Fulton and Clayton hold the large facilities, and their rows measure detention capacity, not residents.

- month — one of: all, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12
