A jail in Kentucky confirmed Friday it has custody of three people who were detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Bloomington.
Hopkins County Jailer Mike Lewis told the Indiana Daily Student the detainees were booked into the jail April 30. Jail records confirm that.
The people detained are Jose Gomez-Iras, Neville Mayorga Rosales and Manuel Sente-Tevelan.
Hopkins County Jail is an ICE detention facility. Detainees can be held there while they go through ICE determination, during which they either begin the immigration process or undergo removal from the United States, according to the ICE website.
It’s still unclear the extent to which ICE has been detaining people in Bloomington and whether the agency is still in town.
