Lassen County Juvenile Hall
Lassen County Juvenile Hall
Within Lassen County, the juvenile probation program has entered into contracts with the counties of Shasta, Butte, Tehama, and Sonoma to house their juvenile offenders. The location within the county of Lassen is not in use, and each of the young offenders is assessed and assigned to the appropriate juvenile facility for their needs and for the level of security they require for their risk levels. Once they have arrived at their housing assignment, they will be permitted to call their parents or legal guardians to ensure they are aware of their location, and they may be permitted to have a special visit that week. Mail, phone calls, and visitation will all be based upon the rules and regulations at their housing facility.Inmate Services

Under the California Constitution, most criminal defendants in Lassen County have a right to be released on bail before trial, except in certain capital and violent felony cases. The California Supreme Court has held that bail must be set with the defendant’s financial circumstances in mind, and that less restrictive alternatives should be used when they would protect the public and ensure the defendant returns to court. Rule 4.101 bars judges from considering whether a jury trial has been requested.

The Lassen County Juvenile Hall holds a license for 40 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more offenders, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in California, at least 35-40% of the population turns over every month. Every 90 days, another 25-30% turns over, and every six months, another 15-20%. About 8-9% stay incarcerated between six and twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are typically facing serious charges like rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain in custody at one of the Lassen County facilities much longer.
Every year, Lassen County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 10,320 offenders.
