As Attorney General Jeff Sessions announces funding restrictions for sanctuary cities this week, counties across California find themselves in the midst of a heated immigration debate.

Yuba County is home to a public jail facility that houses detained immigrants just an hour north of Sacramento. Over nine months, KQED Reporters Julie Small and Lisa Pickoff-White explored the circumstances for the facility, the experience of one detainee with unique health concerns and the politics in Sacramento with far-reaching implications for the county. Reporter Julie Small shares the findings from her investigation.

  • You can read the full story from KQED here.

  • You can read the results of the Yuba County Grand Jury Report from 2014-2015 here.

  • You can also view this interactive map that accompanied the report.
