October 29, 2025 Kelly Martinez, Sheriff San Diego County Sheriff’s Office 9621 Ridgehaven Ct. San Diego, CA 92123 2025-2026 COMPREHENSIVE INSPECTION, PENAL CODE SECTION 6031, WELFARE & INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209, SAN DIEGO COUNTY DETENTION FACILITIES Dear Sheriff Martinez: The 2025-2026 Comprehensive Inspection of the San Diego County Sheriff's Office has been completed. A pre-inspection briefing was held on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, and the following facilities were inspected on Tuesday, September 16, 2025: FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE Las Colinas Detention and Reentry Facility 4402 II El Cajon Court Holding 4455 CHJ These inspections were 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 the inspection(s) by the Board of State and Community Corrections (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. All local inspections were completed this year. INSPECTION RESULTS We identified no items of noncompliance with Title 15 or Title 24 Minimum Standards for either facility. For detailed information, refer to the attached Procedures Checklist, Physical Plant Evaluation, and Living Area Space Evaluation. At the El Cajon Court Holding, the Ground Floor Mezzanine holding cells are not used due, in part, to a non-detentions grade door at the end of the corridor leading to the stairwell. Cells on the 4th floor and 4th floor mezzanine are not in use and have not been used during this inspection cycle. They currently do not meet compliance with Title 24. In the future, should you decide to use these areas, they must meet compliance with Title 24 and be verified by inspection prior to use. The 6th floor has a non-rated space adjacent to Department 18 and should not be used for holding incarcerated persons and has been removed from the Living Area Space Evaluation. Kelly Martinez Sheriff Page 2 An Exit Briefing with your staff was held, in both facilities, on Tuesday, September 16, 2025; BSCC staff presented an inspection overview and discussed technical assistance and best practice recommendations. * * * Please email me at tim.mcwilliams@bscc.ca.gov or call (916) 956-1559 if you have any questions.
