Nationwide, immigration judges granted bond in only 30% of cases from Oct. 2025 through June 2026, according to federal records analyzed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University.
When someone wins a bond, they have to be able to pay to get out of ICE detention. Of the granted bonds nationally, the median amount is $6,500.
Among the 18 cases KyCIR identified where immigration judges granted bond to people jailed by ICE in Western Kentucky, bond amounts ranged from $1,500 to $25,000. In 11 of those cases, the amount exceeded the recent national median amount.
