You may not have been lied to be the authorities. Local law enforcement may have been planning to release your husband until ICE placed a detainee in him. The ICE detainee requires local law enforcement to notify ICE when an alien is going to be released from custody so ICE can take him into custody. You really need to retain an immigration attorney as soon as possible. What can be done to help your husband will depend upon his immigration and criminal history.
