In today’s Senate Finance Committee, Utah state Rep. Kyle Harris found a staggering fact regarding the cost of detaining and housing criminal illegals in Idaho:
We have approximately 250 criminal illegal aliens who have committed felonies and are currently incarcerated in Idaho’s correctional system. These individuals are required to serve their full Idaho sentences before any transfer to ICE detention or other federal facilities can occur.
The most staggering part? The cost to house these illegals is, on average, $95 per day per inmate. This is estimated to cost roughly $8.7 million annually to house these illegals in state prisons.
This is insane and unsustainable.
Multiply this by thousands to get an idea of what it is costing American taxpayers. Thank a Democrat.
There are millions of criminals here who weren’t her five years ago.

Elect Democrats..and don’t be surprised if you are asked to provide your home space to them in a very could happen not so distant future.
The cost of NOT housing criminals is even more staggering. But, if it’s “insane and unsustainable”, here’s a novel idea: get the hell out of Trump and Homan’s way and let the feds deport them. Stop your humble-boasting about “serving their full Idaho sentences before transfer to ICE” and just turn ’em over to Homan and deport ’em. There’s an… Read more »
Actually a decent rate. Nationally, it’s $165/day. Leftists are lying and claiming $850 a day.
The added $750.00 is leftard demoCRAPS cut!!!!!!!
$95 sounds like a bargain.
A .22 caliber cartridge costs less than a quarter.
Now THERE’S some creative thinking.
Bury them under cornfields.
How much goes to the courts and lawyers? Have you noticed the many new downtown courthouses built in America the last 20-40 years? It coincided with the ACLUSPLCDNC Party’s grip on open borders and defund police scams.
