Despite some word to the contrary, Clark County is not a “sanctuary county,” the Clark County Sheriff’s Office reiterated Friday afternoon. However, Sheriff Chuck Atkins said, the county does not accept simple requests from federal immigration officials to detain people at the Clark County Jail, based on growing case law noting such requests violate the Fourth Amendment. “Every person lodged at the Clark County Jail is lodged pursuant to either a court order, arrest warrant, or upon a sworn probable cause affidavit,” Atkins wrote in a post on Facebook.
