Standard-Examiner: "Leader" of Utah Sheriffs' Association Speaks Out on Weber Jail ICE Audit

Mucho importatante front page Standard-Examiner news to gnaw on today. According to this morning's S-E hard-copy edition front page story, the Weber County Sheriff's Office, which feels jilted since the feds "sprang" all Immigration ICE "civil detention prisoners" from the Weber County Hoosegow... is lashing out, via the Utah Sheriff's Union.
Yesiree, it definitely hurts when the feds yank away scores of federal "civil rights datainees", especially when it will cost cost Weber County taxpayers $millons in the "long run".

Sodden query: Even assuming that the Weber County Jail is or isn't abiding by the terms of their their "ICE" contract, should the feds be warehousing these people ("civil detainees") in county jails anyway, in the first place?
