Transfers of ICE Detainees from the
San Diego County Jail
San Diego, California
Table 1: Transfers
During the most recent 12 month period for which data are available, one detainee was
recorded as transferred by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from the San Diego County Jail.
The use of this facility for the temporary housing of federal immigration detainees was arranged
through an intergovernmental service agreement (IGSA) under which payments by ICE to another governmental
agency are made for housing federal detainees.
Additional information about the arrangement, including whether a private company may operate the
facility for the government, was not available at the time this report was posted.
A detainee leaves an ICE detention facility for one of many reasons. The individual may be simply
transferred to a different ICE detention facility. Or the individual may actually leave ICE detention
because they were deported, released under supervision while their cases were being decided, or leave for other reasons.
This report summarizes transfers from the San Diego County Jail. For more information on this facility please see additional TRAC reports in this series.
This report series is based upon analyses conducted by the Transactional Records
Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University of 3.4 million government
records tracking each individual who passed through an ICE detention facility
during the past decade. The most recent 12 month period for which comprehensive data are
available is for April 2007 through March 2008. See About the Data.
Trends in the Number of Detainees Transferred
Greater detail on long-term trends in ICE transfers from the San Diego County Jail are displayed in Figure 1.

Transfer trends for the last decade are summarized by fiscal year in Table 2. Year-by-year figures for the San Diego County Jail
are given for the total number of detainees as compared with the number transferred from the facility.
The percent of detainees that end up being transferred from the facility is also given. (As mentioned
above, the remaining detainees end up deported, released under supervision, or leave ICE detention
for some other reason.) Because data for all twelve months of the most recent fiscal year are not
yet available, the FY 2008 numbers (October 2007 through September 2008) are estimated based upon
reporting for the first six months.
