Who will be the next LA County Chief of Probation? The decision was delayed to March 21 or later.
The county’s embattled Probation Department faces allegations of abuse of force within juvenile halls and allowing illicit drugs in the juvenile detention centers.
The Probation Department was targeted last year in a lawsuit alleging sexual abuse of hundreds of girls by agency staff dating back to 1985. The county’s juvenile lockups have also been criticized in recent years by state corrections officials for being unsuitable to house offenders. Late last year, the department abruptly moved all detainees out of Central Juvenile Hall in Lincoln Heights over concerns about conditions at the facility.
