The Facility 8 Detention is a detention center located at 446 Alta Rd, Ste 5300 San Diego, CA which is operated locally by the San Diego 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. San Diego County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, San Diego 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.

Facility 8 was the first of the facilities here on the Mesa to install Touchscreen technology for all control responsibilities. This included all new High-Definition camera systems to assist in monitoring all of the Facility 8 activities.
The facility’s visitor and information office in addition to the beautifully landscaped visit yard allows for professional visitation and provides each inmate the opportunity to receive two one-half hour supervised outdoor contact visits per week. A newly refurbished exercise yard allows for at least three hours per week of recreation/exercise per inmate and a redesigned multi-purpose room allows for the delivery of drug dependency counseling, religious services, and educational programs.
Inmates’ medical needs are addressed through a daily nurse’s sick call, a weekly doctor’s sick call, a weekly psychiatric sick call and medication distribution.
