In situations where brief or accidental contact may occur, such as booking or facility movement, facility staff (trained in the supervision of incarcerated people) shall maintain a constant, side-by-side presence with the minor or the adult to prevent sustained contact. 1145 DECISION ON SECURE CUSTODY A minor who is taken into temporary custody by a peace officer on the basis that they are a person described by Section 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code may be held in secure custody in a law enforcement facility that contains a lockup for adults if the minor is 14 years of age or older and if, in the reasonable belief of the peace officer, the minor presents a serious security risk of harm to self or others, as long as all other conditions of secure custody set forth in these standards are met. Any minor in temporary custody who is less than 14 years of age, or who does not in the reasonable belief of the peace officer present a serious security risk of harm to self or others, shall not be placed in secure custody, but may be kept in non-secure custody in the facility as long as all other conditions of non-secure custody set forth in these standards are met.
