Staff at the two juvenile halls reported detainees used fake DoorDash delivery drivers to smuggle pills inside of burritos, said the county’s inspector general.
Two Los Angeles County juvenile facilities have such lax security that illicit substances and other contraband are thrown over fences, dropped by drones and even delivered by fake DoorDash drivers and others who walk through security without ever being searched, according to a new report by the county’s watchdog office.
A third youth in the unit appeared to be under the influence of drugs at time and was searched, but “was not drug tested or transferred to the medical unit for observation,” according to“The documents reviewed by the Office of Inspector General indicate this is the only K-9 search that was conducted in this specific unit since January 1, 2023,” wrote Max Huntsman, the county’s inspector general, in the report.
The Probation Department is investigating acquiring technology to combat drones that allegedly have been used to drop drugs into the facilities, according to the report. Thermoses and other containers were placed on top of the scanning machines when staff walked through the metal detectors and then retrieved without any examination by the security team, the report noted. At the same time, other entrances used by staff weren’t monitored at all, according to the OIG.
Those interviewed by the OIG said they later found contraband among some food deliveries, including “pills wrapped inside a burrito.” Neither facility notified law enforcement about the contraband or created an inventory to protect against theft. Sometimes, unauthorized pills at Central Juvenile Hall were “given” to the K-9 units for training, but without any documentation “as to when and how pills recovered at the facility are transferred to their K-9 unit.”
