The San Bernardino County Probation Department recently conducted a Compliance Operation in the city of Colton. Colton Police Officers assisted Probation Officers with the sweep. The operation resulted in 25 arrests, including one PRCS offender and nine probationers. Fifteen arrests were also made for bench warrants or new criminal offenses. The compliance checks targeted supervised offenders residing in the city of Colton, including PRCS offenders released due to AB109, Adult Probationers, and juvenile wards of the court. During Thursday’s operation, Probation Officers attempted 96 home visits and had 73 successful contacts. Probation officers also confiscated 25 grams of marijuana, 11 grams of methamphetamine, two knives, and one machete. Additionally, offenders that were found to be at-risk for violating their terms of supervision or simply in need of services were provided with information and referrals to the probation department’s Central Day Reporting Center, on 4th Street in San Bernardino. At the center, offenders can take advantage of abundant social service programs designed to assist in their rehabilitation and increase their chance of success on probation. The Day Reporting Center provides classes, programs, substance abuse treatment, job readiness training and referrals, or other resources that help supervised offenders build crime-free productive lives. This operation was part of the Probation Department’s on-going mission to conduct saturation compliance operations in which every supervised offender within a specific city or area is targeted for contact. Operations are regularly scheduled throughout the county. Chief Probation Officer Michelle Scray Brown has commented on these compliance operations, stating that they are an essential component of probation supervision. “Simultaneously, they increase public safety through the arrest of offenders who are in violation, while also ensuring probationers are contacted in their homes and referred to programs when necessary.”
