The above is partially true. She does bid that much, but the value has a specific reason...

"ยง 339.88. Expenses of detention.

The expenses incurred for detention under section 339.86 or 339.87 of the Revised Code shall be paid by the individual detained or if the individual is indigent, by the board of county commissioners of the county from which the individual was removed. "
