Dear Sheriff Briese:
An Unannounced Inspection of the Mariposa County Sheriff's Office was completed for
the following facility on October 02, 2025:
FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE
Mariposa Co. Adult Detention Facility 3090 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.
INSPECTION RESULTS
The focus of the Unannounced Inspection was to evaluate continued compliance with
Title 15, Section 1056, Use of Sobering Cell. BSCC staff requested documentation of any
use of the sobering cell between May and September 2025. Agency supervision provided
documentation of one placement that took place on May 3, 2025. Based on the
documentation review, BSCC staff found the justification for placement notes, and the
safety checks were in compliance with this regulation.
We identified no items of noncompliance with Title 15 Minimum Standards.
