FACILITY
Dear Sheriff Gibbs:
The 2025-2026 Comprehensive Inspection of the Glenn County Sheriff's Office has been
completed. A pre-inspection briefing was held on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, and the
following facility was inspected on Tuesday, December 2, 2025:
FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE
Glenn County Jail 0850 II
This inspection was conducted pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031 to determine
compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles
15 and 24, California Code of Regulations.
In addition to inspection(s) by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the
County Health Officer and biennially by the State Fire Marshal or an authorized
representative (Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1). The results of
those inspections are considered a part of this report. The facility County Health Officer
found minor issues during their November 2024 inspection. Despite efforts to schedule
the fire prevention inspection with the local fire authority, the facility has not been
inspected within the last two years.
INSPECTION RESULTS
We identified the following items of noncompliance with Title 15 Minimum Standards:
§ 1029. Policy and Procedures Manual, Subsection (a)(6) Each facility administrator
shall, at least annually, review, evaluate, and make a record of security measures. The
review and evaluation shall include internal and external security measures of the facility
including security measures specific to prevention of sexual abuse and sexual
harassment.

Facility supervision did not provide proof of completion in 2025 of the annual
internal and external security measures review of the facility, to include measures
specific to the prevention of sexual abuse and sexual harassment.
§ 1030. Suicide Prevention Program, Subsection (a) Annual suicide prevention
training for all custodial personnel.
Agency supervision failed to provide a staffing roster documenting the completion
of annual suicide prevention training for custodial staff.
Corrected: On December 5, 2025, agency supervision provided a roster for staff
training.
§ 1032. Fire Suppression Preplanning, Subsection (c) fire prevention inspections as
required by Health and Safety Code Section 13146.1(a) and (b) which requires
inspections at least once every two years;
Agency supervision advised that despite efforts to have the local fire authority
complete the fire prevention inspection, it has not been completed within the last
two years.
§ 1046. Death in Custody, Subsection (a)The facility administrator shall develop written
policy and procedures to comply with the in-custody death reporting requirements of
Government Code section 12525. The facility administrator shall submit a copy of the
report filed pursuant to section 12525 to the BSCC within 10 days of an in-custody death.
The requirement to submit a copy of the report to the BSCC within 10 days of an
in-custody death was not included in agency policy.
§ 1055. Use of Safety Cell, Subsection (b) A person shall be placed in a safety cell only
with the approval of the facility manager or designee, or responsible health care staff;
continued retention shall be reviewed a minimum of every four hours.
Agency staff failed to document continued retention every four hours in a few of
the safety cell placement observation logs.
§ 1055. Use of Safety Cell, Subsection (e) Direct visual observation shall be conducted
at least twice every 30 minutes, with no more than a 15-minute lapse between safety
checks. Such observation shall be documented.
Agency staff conducted several safety checks in excess of 15 minutes from the
previous safety check.
§ 1067. Access to Telephone… Individuals who are known to have, or are perceived by
others as having hearing or speech impairments shall be provided access to the
appropriate telecommunication device which will facilitate communication.
