James A. Musick Facility Opening

OC SHERIFF ANNUAL REPORT | | 2024-25 P 8

The OC Sheriff’s Department in October 2024 commemorated the completion of the new James A. Musick facility with a flag raising ceremony and grand opening event. The 324,000 square-foot, 896-bed facility houses minimum and medium-security incarcerated persons under a direct-supervision model, which marks a departure from traditional custody facility designs. The innovative facility focuses on increased rehabilitation services, enhanced safety and greater access to education and health services. Bringing services direct to those in custody creates a safer and more effective space for staff and inmates.
