Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance The BSCC monitors local detention facilities for compliance with JJDPA. Documentation was provided for 2022 and 2021. It was found that your logs and your reporting are not consistent and do not match. It is said that youth are held in non-secure detention only, but secure logs were documented and then corrected. There are not enough logs to correspond with the number of youths reported. We have asked the agency to provide corrected documentation for record keeping purposes for 2021 and 2022 and to ensure 2023 and forward are documented correctly. We have provided technical assistance and training to identified staff who will be responsible for training your officers. This is a training issue that has been addressed for future compliance. The facility will be monitored for consistency and proper documentation. This concludes our inspection report for the 2020-2022 biennial inspection cycle of the Coalinga Police Department. We look forward to continuing being available to provide technical assistance as needed. If you should have any questions, please contact me at (916) 838-9132 or email at lisa.southwell@bscc.ca.gov.

There appears to be adequate staffing overall; however, the staffing plan/schedule notes less staff on the weekends and evenings as the support staff do not work beyond the typical workday hours. Less staffing impacts regulatory compliance beyond this section. See Sections 1027.5 Safety Checks.

Officers often return to the field, leaving the prisoners to be supervised by the dispatcher who cannot leave their post unless they are working in pairs. Not all dispatchers have been trained; this section remains non-compliant. Agency policy notes the supervising member should not have other ☐ ☒ ☐ duties that could “unreasonably” conflict and the individual must be able to summon the supervising member if needed. In both cases, no supervisor could appropriately be summoned. Technical assistance has been provided in the past to address this issue; however, this section remains non-compliant as evidenced by the length of time between some safety checks. When this occurs, this is non-compliant as the dispatcher is generally alone and their priority is the 911 dispatch.
