UaJECTi REPORT FROM SHERIFF ON BRUKOUT AT MARTINRZ JAIL
BPRCIIrIC REM8Tt9? OR RQCOMMENDATIONtS} ik BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
E
RBCAIY![ MATION
That a full report be 'made to the Board of Supervisors by
SheriffRichard Rainey on the breakout .at the main facility
in Martinez by four men.
We need to know if the screen was installed according to the
architect's modifications. if so, what can be done to make
the screen secure enough that inmates won' t"be able to break
out.
We need to know if the ;,Sheriff will be exploring innovative
ways to deal with this problem, such as florescent clothing
or leg bracelets ` that ;are used by the Probation� Department
on home supervision cases.
BACKGROUND;
On Monday, February 4,! ,,1991, four inmates broke out of a
newly installed screen litted .over the top of an open- air
courtyard.
This breakout followsclosely on the heels of a previous
breakout that involved six men.
I am very concerned, just as the Sheriff should be, that
there are two schools ' n close proximity to the jail. There
are also many senior, citizens living alone in the shadow of
the jail.
