Summary
Existing law provides for the placement of juveniles under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court into a county juvenile hall. Existing law establishes the Board of State and Community Corrections to provide statewide leadership, coordination, and technical assistance to promote effective state and local efforts and partnerships in California's adult and juvenile criminal justice system, as specified. Existing law requires the board to inspect each local detention facility in the state at least biennially, including juvenile halls and similar facilities used for the confinement of any minor, as specified. This bill would require every juvenile probation department to annually report specified information relating to injuries to juvenile hall staff and residents that result from an interaction with a resident to the Board of State and Community Corrections, as specified, including a statement or statements from any residents involved. The bill would prohibit those statements from being taken by any custodial staff in a position of power or influence over the resident providing the statement. By imposing new duties on juvenile probation departments to complete this reporting requirement, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
