The deployment of reserve deputies is part of a plan to head off a threat by state regulators to close L.A. County's juvenile facilities. A third juvenile hall would be reopened under the plan.
Los Angeles County leaders plan to reopen a shuttered juvenile hall and deploy reserve sheriff officers to work in the facilities as they scramble to fix a staffing crisis that has state regulators threatening to close down the county’s two remaining juvenile halls.
“After nearly 34 years working in the probation field, it is time to retire and embark on the next chapter of my life,” she wrote in a departing memo to staff. And the California Board of State and Community Corrections threatened to shut down the halls after repeatedly finding them out of compliance with a long list of state regulations. The board has scheduled a meeting for May 23 to decide whether Barry J. Nidorf Juvenile Hall and Central Juvenile Hall should be vacated.
Brooke Harris, head of the Pacific Juvenile Defender Center, called the deployment of sheriff’s officers “extraordinarily troubling,”After warning a shutdown was imminent, the state oversight board will now give L.A. County more time to fix the troubled facilities.
