Breaking: Niagara County Sheriff Michael Filicetti tells Investigative Post he's pulling back on his partnership with ICE. The move comes after pressure from county officials and Lockport residents.
Filicetti says he will now only detain immigrants at the jail if they've been criminally charged. He was previously detaining all migrants brought to the jail by ICE.
