Critical Incident Review Board (2022)

In-Custody Deaths

The Sheriff's Homicide Unit conducts a thorough investigation of every in-custody death. In addition to the investigation conducted by the Sheriff's Homicide Unit, the Sheriff's Critical Incident Review Board (CIRB) conducts a review of in-custody deaths. The CIRB is comprised of department leadership and the Sheriff's Legal Advisor and performs a critical review of each incident. The focus of the CIRB is to assess the department’s civil exposure because of a given incident. The review may identify potential misconduct, criminal negligence or behavior, policy violations, training deficiencies, or other areas where we can improve and make our facilities safer for staff and those in our custody. These releases are synopses of reviewed incidents and any resultant actions or policy changes intended to improve our operations. In some instances, the information contained in these releases may be fragmentary or incomplete and are subject to update as information is verified or confirmed. The release of information related to a matter involving potential criminal prosecution or civil litigation may delay or limit the amount of information released until the conclusion of the case.
