National data compiled by the Transaction Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University indicates that the number of people detained by ICE — excluding those arrested by Customs and Border Protection — spiked in late January, nearly doubling from about 14,900 on January 26 to 28,900 on April 6.
The largest relative increase in detentions was also among people with no criminal convictions nationally, jumping from 900 in late January to more than 5,000 in March. The number soon surged again as ICE continued its mass deportation efforts, nearing 11,800 as of mid-June, compared to 14,500 detainees with convictions.
