January 11, 2022 Cesar Escuro, Interim Chief Probation Officer San Diego County Probation Department PO Box 23597 San Diego, CA 92193-3597 SAN DIEGO COUNTY PROBATION DETENTION FACILITIES 2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION PURSUANT TO WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209 AND 885 Dear Chief Escuro: From November 30 through December 2, 2021, the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted an inspection of the San Diego Probation Department’s Juvenile Detention Facilities: Kearny Mesa Detention Facility (KMJD) 7491 East Mesa Detention Facility (EMDJD) 7492 Urban Camp (UC) 9473 To prepare for the inspections, a "pre-inspection briefing" for probation staff was held on June 16, 2021. During this briefing, your staff described your facility operations, while I discussed the regulations and expectations, and outlined plans for the inspection. The inspection assessed compliance with Title 15 and Title 24 Code of Regulations (CCR), Minimum Standards for Juvenile Facilities. The inspections consisted of a review of applicable policies and procedures and documentation governing operations to verify that your practices follow your written procedures. The inspection also consisted of a "walk-through" of the physical plant, and included interviews with probation staff, youth, medical staff, school staff, and other support staff. Local Inspection In addition to the biennial inspection, Title 15, Section 1313 and its authorizing statute require local inspections conducted by the following authorities: County Building Inspection by agency designated by the Board of Supervisors; Fire authority having jurisdiction; local health officer; county superintendent of schools; Juvenile Court; and Juvenile Justice Commission. Results of these inspections are considered as part of this report. The dates of the local inspections may be found in the Title 15 Procedures Checklist. There were no noncompliance issues related to required local inspections. Title 15, CCR Inspection Prior to the on-site inspections, we began with a review of the Department’s Detention Policy and Procedure Manual. Our evaluation consists of reviewing only those policies, procedures specifically related to the Juvenile Hall and the Urban Camp Facilities. We noted there were 1/11/2022 Chief Escuro Page 2 policies that were missing information or inconsistent with the new requirements of the regulations. These areas were corrected prior to our on-site inspection, and all are now current and consistent with regulation requirements. We also reviewed each facility’s incident reports and other documents including suicide watch, room confinement, use of force, use of force with the use of OC, use of restraints and restraints for movement within the facility. We continued reviewing grievances, programming sheets, admission, release and classification documents, case plans, unit and staff schedules and staffing documentation, due process and safety checks were also reviewed to ensure compliance with Title 15 regulations. These documents were reviewed to ensure that each facility’s operations and policy and practice are consistent with regulatory expectations. Upon final review of the policy and procedures, documentations and reviewing each facility practices, the following areas are noncompliant and require corrective action for all facilities: • Title 15, Section 1354.5(a)1 Room Confinement: Each facility lacks options for discipline other than counseling or room confinement. • Title 15, Section 1354.5(a)2 Room Confinement: Inappropriately behaved minors will automatically receive 2 hrs. of room confinement. The department has not defined inappropriate behavior. • Title 15, Section 1354.5(a) Room Confinement: Youth will automatically serve 4 hrs. of room confinement prior to returning to the general population it they were involved in a fight. • Title 15, Section 1354.5(b)(A) Room Confinement: One youth was placed on room confinement for 4 hours 59 minutes for Inappropriate Behavior and 2 youth were placed on room confinement for 4 hours and 22 minutes for fighting without documentation explanation (KMJD). Please refer to the Procedures Checklists for detailed information. Title 24, CCR Inspection There were no changes made to the physical plant and the rated capacity remains at 290 for the East Mesa Juvenile Detention (EMJD) facility. As for Kearney Mesa Juvenile Detention (KMJD) and the Urban Camp, these facilities are scheduled to be demolished in January 2022 in preparation for building a new Juvenile Hall which will be scheduled for opening in 2023. Youth from KMJD will be transferred to the EMJD. The Urban Camp youth will move into the new 90- beds Youth Transition Campus facility, which is adjunct to KMJD parking lot. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance Monitoring The JJDPA prohibits status offenders from being held in secure detention with certain exceptions. There have been no violations of JJDPA this inspection cycle and no areas of non-compliance were noted. Corrective Action Plan 7491+ San Diego JH Camp LTR 20-22 1/11/2022 Chief Escuro Page 3 During the exit briefing on December 2, 2021, we provided the department with an Initial Inspection Report that outline noncompliance issues listed above. You must submit a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) by January 31, 2022. As you are aware, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 209(d), you must submit a CAP no later than 60 days from notice of noncompliance, which is January 31, 2022. The CAP must outline how you will correct the items of noncompliance within 90 days of CAP submission. Failure to submit a CAP or correct the items of noncompliance within those timelines will result in in a determination of suitability by the BSCC Board. This concludes the 2020-2022 biennial inspection cycle report of the San Diego County Juvenile Detention Facilities. We would like to express our gratitude to Deputy Director Alex Zermeno, Division Directors Matthew Strickland, Noel Susi, Christene Andrews, Tim Hancock, Supervisors Mike Whatley, Scott Weatherton and Jennie Rathbun and staff at each facility who made the inspection process seamless and represented your department in an exemplary manner. We appreciate the time and energy spent preparing for, organizing, and participating in the inspection, especially given the amount of documentation requested and the amount of work necessary updating policies, procedures and ensuring daily operations are consistent with regulation. We look forward to working together in the future. I am available to assist as needed and happy to provide technical assistance when requested. I look forward to continuing to work together.
