Ventura County Sheriff - Main Jail
800 South Victoria Avenue
Ventura, CA
Ventura Jail Map
The operation of the Ventura County Sheriff Jail is within the Detention Services Division. The unique design of this medium security facility has allowed the Ventura County Sheriff to keep staffing costs to a minimum. It allows services to be brought to the inmates and provides the flexibility to accommodate an inmate population of up to 890 inmates. The Ventura County Sheriff is entrusted with the safety and care of inmates who are awaiting or currently going through trial. When a suspect is arrested, he/she is brought to the Ventura Police Department or Ventura County Jail for booking. This consists of fingerprinting, photographing, and classifying the Inmate based on his/her crime and, if applicable, behavior while previously in custody. Inmate classification is one of the most important functions within the Ventura County Jail, as it prevents inmates with different levels of criminal sophistication from interacting with each other.
East - Ventura County Jail
2101 East Olsen Road
Thousand Oaks, CA (805) 654-3335
The East County Jail operates under the direction of the Main Ventura County Jail. This facility serves as a satellite booking jail for agencies at the eastern side of Ventura County. The facility is staffed with eleven Ventura County Sheriffs Department Deputies and service technicians who process new arrestees and supervise up to twenty inmate workers. The ability to book fresh arrests at this jail facility allows sheriffs deputies and other Ventura Police Departments to save valuable patrol time because they do not have to transport their prisoners to Ventura County Jail.
When a person is arrested in Ventura County they will usually be booked at one of the following jails or police departments. When housed a defendant will be taken to either the Main County Jail or the Santa Maria Jail. The Santa Maria Jail Facility is a remote booking facility, which houses inmates for up to 96 hours. Inmates here are held temporarily until released or transferred to the Main Jail in Ventura. This jail accounts for approximately 32% of total county bookings. The Ventura County Main Jail is a secure correctional facility holding pre-trial detainees as well as male and female sentenced inmates. The Main Jail receives new bookings directly from Sheriff's Patrol and other south coast police agencies such as the Ventura Police Department, the University Of California Police Department, and the California Highway Patrol. Detainees from the Santa Maria Branch Jail are routinely transported to and housed in the Main Jail.
Ventura County Sheriffs - Todd Road Jail Facility
600 South Todd Road
Santa Paula, CA (805) 654-3335
Under the Detention Facility Master Plan adopted by the County of Ventura in 1990, the Ventura County Sheriffs Todd Road Jail is designed to accommodate expansion. At full build-out, 2307 inmates may be housed at this facility. The decision to build a single inmate housing cluster came about as a result of a critical need for additional jail space and ongoing fiscal limitations.
As it now stands, the Todd Road Jail has a design capacity of 784 inmates. Staffing requirements of this facility combine the use of both sworn and civilian employees. The Todd Road Jail will house only sentenced inmates. In keeping with a long-standing Ventura County Sheriffs Department philosophy of providing opportunities to inmates, a variety of educational substance abuse, and vocational development programs are offered to all inmates.
