The Contra Costa County - Martinez Detention is a low/medium-security detention center located at 1000 Ward St Martinez, CA which is operated locally by the Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Contra Costa County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Martinez Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.
New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for California here.
The MDF administration and staff work in collaboration with many community-based organizations to provide educational and rehabilitative programs for the inmates. The MDF also offers a broad range of medical and psychiatric services to the inmates provided by physicians, psychiatrists, dentists, nurses, and mental health clinicians. The MDF staffing consists of both sworn and professional staff members (assigned to operational and support roles) who work diligently to provide a safe and clean housing environment for inmates.
In 1984, the advisory board of the N.I.C. formally endorsed the direct supervision / non-barrier approach to correctional facility design and operation for jurisdictions contemplating construction or renovation of prisons and jails.
