    I am contracted and provide mental health services at West Valley Detention Center. Considering…read moreit's jail, it's not bad here. The cells are clean, food is hot and everyone does their part to make the jail run. It's takes multiple departments coming together for each client's care. So it really is a team effort. Not to mention you have dayshift and nightshift rotations occurring. It's truly unfortunate to see the negative experiences people have posted on here. Being on the inside for the past year, I will say that there are some hard working staff members that work at WVDC. And they do their best to provide the best service possible. The deputies work their butts off and deal with some of the worst and craziest stuff ever. You literally are exposed to things that nightmares are made of. So for that I commend the SGT's, deputies, doctors, nurses and clinicians that work at West Valley Detention Center. It takes a mental and physical toll on individuals to work in this environment. And it is not easy. That being said, when inmates are "mistreated" it is because they are not being compliant (not following instruction or doing what they are told) and/ or they are resisting the officers. That's where disciplines come into play (brick diet) and being sent to the hole. It's jail folks. Don't break the law and do bad things. Then you won't have to deal with the politics of being incarcerated. And if you do have to serve time, stay out of trouble. Follow the rules. Ultimately jail is a consequence of breaking the law. And I believe that West Valley meets expectations of providing what is required to each individual as well as offering additional help such as mental health services to individuals struggling with mental illness. West Valley Detention Center actually has the best mental health services available, compared to the other SBC jail locations (HDDC, Glen Helen, Central). So West Valley is where it's at! The most services available.

    What the jailers at this facility don't understand is that Bail Agents cannot do their jobs unless…read morethey pick up the phone and provide Bail Bond information. Bail Agents lose business constantly due to West Valley jailers not picking up the phone. People take their business elsewhere when we cannot provide them information in a timely fashion. It's very convenient for these jailers to just not pick up the phones. They're knowing to pick up, and leave it off the hook so it doesn't disturb them. They have no idea on how such a simple act of not picking up can negatively affect one's livelihood. But who cares right? we're just bail bondsman. People can care less about us.

    I was scammed by some people online. I had already talked to the bank and started the dispute…read moreprocess. However, I wanted to file a police report because not only did the people get money from me, but they were also threatening blackmail. I explained the situation to the women at the counter, and they said, "That's a civil matter." I told them, no, actually, fraud by impersonating a law firm is a felony in CA, and could also be prosecuted as such federally. Blackmail is also a felony. They both gave attitude. I waited for about an hour before a deputy called me in to get all the info. He was great, and is the reason for the stars I'm giving them. He took all the information, copied the emails, even spoke to the person on the phone! He told me he didn't know if they could do anything. I told him I knew, but just wanted the record, in case they do go through with the blackmail. While I was waiting in the lobby, two other women came in and were also told that they had a civil matter. One of them already had court orders against the person she was having problems with. So, not a civil matter. The other, I'm not sure what it was about. But regardless, these women don't seem to have any education on the law, or what the police's job is. They shouldn't just tell everyone that comes in that they can't be helped. It really seemed like they just didn't want to do any work. Rude, unhelpful, and not knowledgeable. I'd give 0 stars for them.

    I have personally witnessed and heard from many in my community that the Rancho Cucamonga Police…read moreDepartment has recently come under scrutiny for indiscriminate vehicle stops, often targeting regular citizens. Too many times, I've seen or been told that people are accused of driving under the influence (DUI) immediately during a stop--regardless of actual impairment--creating a climate of fear and mistrust in our neighborhoods and even at local restaurants where these stories echo among residents. DUI Stops and Discriminatory Tactics When anyone gets pulled over, it now feels like the default assumption by officers is that we are under the influence, and we're pushed through DUI protocols whether there's evidence or not. I've also heard concerning reports that officers sometimes turn off body cameras during key moments, preventing any real transparency or accountability when things go wrong. Supervisor Request Policy and Legal Rights I know from research and talking to others that, while California law doesn't force officers to bring a supervisor to every traffic stop, best practices--and basic respect--say that the option should be available, especially if there's a legitimate complaint. However, in Rancho Cucamonga, officers frequently flat-out deny requests to see a supervisor, which not only goes against common sense but is misleading and wrong. Even if they say no on scene, anyone can file a formal complaint, whether in person at the sheriff's station or through Internal Affairs, and that's what I encourage everyone to do. Filing Complaints and Brady-Giglio/"Do Not Call" Lists If you've felt harassed, denied your right to speak to a supervisor, or wrongfully accused, document everything and file an official complaint with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. I've learned that you can also request that the District Attorney review the officer for placement on the Brady-Giglio or "do-not-call" list--a tool designed to flag officers with credibility problems due to their misconduct. The process means sending a written report to the DA, and if enough evidence stacks up, it can lead to real consequences for the officer involved. Community Action and Next Steps Here's what I recommend if you or anyone you know gets caught in one of these situations: - Write down everything--names, badge numbers, times, and how officers behaved. - File a formal complaint with Internal Affairs at the sheriff's department. - Send a request to the District Attorney for a Brady/Giglio review of the officer involved. - Make noise--share what happened in community forums, advocacy groups, and on social media or with local news, so our community knows what's going on and oversight increases. - statenationalsrock.com Taking these steps matters more than ever for enforcing transparency, protecting our rights, and making sure law enforcement in Rancho Cucamonga operates fairly and with real accountability.
