South Lake Tahoe Juvenile Treatment Center

Built with triangles to represent strength, the South Lake Tahoe Juvenile Treatment Center has been slated for closure. Built in the manner of a jail, the decision was made to close this facility and to work with nearby Placerville to build a brand new facility with a different approach. The Tahoe facility has seen a decrease in use, requires multiple repairs, and no longer offers the environment that is preferred for young offenders. It was a difficult decision but is expected to better serve the needs of the community.

Could there be a warrant for your arrest in El Dorado County or anywhere in California? Do you need information on a court case that involves you, a friend, or a relative? The California Superior Court is the place to begin.

In El Dorado County and throughout California, most criminal defendants have a constitutional right to bail before trial, except in certain capital and violent felony cases. The California Supreme Court has held that judges must take a defendant’s ability to pay into account, and must consider less restrictive alternatives before keeping someone in jail because they can’t afford bail. Per Rule 4.101, judges may not consider whether the defendant wants a jury trial when setting bail.

Call the jail at 530-573-7980 for the easiest way to find an inmate’s bail at the South Lake Tahoe Juvenile Treatment Center. If you know the offense the inmate was arrested for, you can also check the bail schedule for El Dorado County. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond.

The South Lake Tahoe Juvenile Treatment Center is licensed for 40 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more, especially on weekends. The monthly turnover rate at most city and county jails in California is at least 35-40% of the inmate population, with an additional 25-30% every 90 days and an additional 15-20% every six months. Approximately 8-9% stay incarcerated between six and twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain in one of the El Dorado County facilities much longer.

El Dorado County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 10,020 offenders every year.
