DeKalb County has received a federal grant to reimburse some costs for incarcerating criminals who may not be U.S. citizens.
The $246,800 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice will help cover the 300 to 400 such inmates housed at the county jail yearly.
About $37,000 of the money will go to Justice Benefits, Inc., a private firm that researches and analyzes the data needed to qualify for the grant.
