In California, including Los Angeles County, most criminal defendants have a constitutional right to bail before trial, except in certain capital and violent felony cases. Under a California Supreme Court ruling, judges setting bail must consider the defendant’s ability to pay and look at less restrictive conditions before detaining someone who can’t afford bail. Rule 4.101 prohibits judges from considering whether a defendant has requested a jury trial.

The Glendale Jail is licensed for 25 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more, especially on weekends. 35-40% or more of the inmate population at most city and county jails in California turns over monthly, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months, with about 8-9% staying six to twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually 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 Los Angeles County facilities much longer.
Los Angeles County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 462,420 offenders every year.
