In a decisive move to combat the alarming influx of illicit drugs and contraband in Los Angeles County’s juvenile halls, county leaders are implementing stringent new security measures following a recent overdose incident that sent multiple staff members and a youth to the hospital. The situation escalated further with the arrest of an educational contractor, prompting immediate action from the Board of Supervisors.

Tonight, officials revealed a comprehensive plan designed to tighten security and safeguard the well-being of vulnerable youth. The Board voted to terminate the contract with the educational company linked to the contractor’s arrest, signaling zero tolerance for any breaches of trust.

Under the new regulations, all individuals entering the juvenile facilities—including staff, contractors, and visitors—will now be required to use clear bags, limiting entry to essential items such as lunch, water, and necessary medications. This measure aims to eliminate the possibility of smuggling contraband into the facilities.

In a dramatic enhancement of security protocols, body scanners will be installed at the entrances of all juvenile halls. Every person entering the premises will undergo screening, mirroring the stringent security measures seen in airports. This initiative underscores the county’s commitment to ensuring a safe environment for its youth, who are already facing significant challenges.

These urgent steps come in response to mounting concerns about the integrity of staff members and contractors, with allegations of drug smuggling casting a shadow over the facilities. The county is determined to restore trust and protect its young residents from the dangers of drug abuse and the threats posed by contraband. As the situation unfolds, officials stress that the safety of the youth remains their top priority.
