Correction, 2026-08-27 — DUPLICATE, MERGED. This entry duplicated the June 8, 2026 Salt Lake City/County lawsuit filing already recorded (and now canonical) at 2026-06-08–salt-lake-city-county-sue-dhs-ice-warehouse-detention-conversion. It originally reported a 13,000-bed capacity figure; the canonical entry’s title/body now use “up to 10,000,” matching the August 2026 court-filing-sourced reporting (KUER/Utah Public Radio) that this corpus treats as the surviving figure. 13,000 appears to have been an early press estimate at filing time, not language from the complaint itself (which is PACER-gated and was not independently reread for this correction).

This file is retained, rather than deleted, solely to preserve its distinct sources (the Bloomberg feature is not cited on the canonical entry’s original source list and has been folded in there too) per corpus discipline: preserve every distinct source even where entries duplicate, since the coverage trail is the audit record. Do not cite this entry’s bed-count figure or treat it as a separate event. See the canonical entry for the full writeup and downstream links (acquisition, sibling suits, June 21 offload announcement, August 19 abandonment).
