Lieutenant Shannon Taylor reported to the committee that the Criminal Justice Center currently holds 139 inmates: "61 Cassia; 33 Minidoka; one ICE; 37 IDOC; four US Marshals; one courtesy, for a total of 43 rented beds," and that the facility remains short one deputy. He said one candidate may be able to start in June and three recruits are still at the Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) program.
The report frames both population pressure and staffing constraints. The committee did not record further operational directions at this meeting; no bed‑rental contract amounts or future capacity plans were cited in the minutes.
