Across the state, dozens of youthful offenders are moving back to their home counties to finish their sentences. A hearing last week in a Scripps Ranch murder case shed light on the county's scramble to patch together programming
California announced three years ago that it would close the facilities that house the highest level of youthful offenders — minors convicted of murder or other serious crimes — and send them back to their home counties to serve their sentences.Not all of the classes and services the Probation Department needs to provide the returning youths are in place. And the facility where the youths will live is still being remodeled.
Nelson cited two reasons for the delay: the county has had to wait for state money and it has had difficulty finding an outside organization to provide rehabilitative services the youths need. A lack of services locally led Attridge, his attorney, to look for options outside the region. Last Monday, a San Diego judge agreed to let the young man leave San Diego for a less-restrictive program in Los Angeles offered by a nonprofit that helps juveniles transitioning out of custody.
Judge Rohanee Zapanta’s written ruling last week was not publicly available, as it included confidential information about the youth. Attridge said the decision cites, in part, the lack of programming provided by San Diego to suit her client’s specific needs. She said it also finds the Los Angeles program would better serve him.In 2020, Gov.
Nelson said that in 2021, the Probation Department issued a request for proposals from agencies to facilitate classes and training for the Youth Development Academy. None submitted a proposal. In August, probation will launch a “Fuel/Fire Crew” program for youths in long-term custody who have graduated high school and are interested in firefighting or land management careers. The yearlong offering could make them eligible to become classified as seasonal firefighters.
