Even scheduling a visit feels like a battle--the outdated, glitchy website makes it incredibly difficult just to see your loved one. It left me feeling like families are kept at a distance instead of being encouraged to stay connected. My loved one went five days without prescribed psychiatric medication until he suffered a seizure, and by the time I saw him two weeks later, I barely recognized him. No family should have to experience that. If your loved one is there, document everything, keep calling, and never stop advocating for them. This was our experience, and people deserve to know there is another side to Twin Towers. They make everything so difficult when it comes to families supporting their loved ones.

Must say I was pretty unenthused about the whole process of visitation at this location …read more... recently found out my best friend was incarcerated at this facility and let me just say I put off the visit for a week or two, due to my experience of sheer hell , total waste of time and un due stress and anger id have every week twice a week from December 2012-January 2014 and again late 2016 to mid 2017. Happy to say this time was a vast improvement! Kudos to the Staff , which was courteous and prompt, and no long lines. Besides the bucket in middle of waiting room collecting the roof leak, it seemed way cleaner. Can't vouch for the bathroom which was always just horrifying! Line moved smoothly, officers weren't standing around shooting the shit and ignoring us and letting the line build....or didn't flirt with the hood rats or talk shit or be extra with each individual...... Names called pretty promptly.... actually called within 15 minutes of checking in.... I used to fall asleep waiting for my ex boyfriends name to be called. The major problems back when was the officers always without fail would make some snarky remark or be on some enormous power trip and loved playing god with your visits. Guess al the complaints really prompted some customer service skills or on a more realistic way of putting things, the county decided to place the old officers whom were void of any human emotions somewhere that didn't involve the general public... Also the lines and disorder of the visitation was just outrageous. Congrats on getting it together, Really makes our day go by smoothly, it's nice to not be punished for our loved ones mistakes lol! I will say that the rate for parking is pretty high.... while wayside offers free parking... this is why I gave you 4 stars.

My son is in their facility they have been treating him very badly they haven't given him a drink…read moreof water for approximately 30 days they put him in a cell where there is no drinking fountain he was urinating blood and he had diarrhea at the same time he also passed out a few times and he woke up and the sheriff was walking right past him like he was nothing I had to make almost 400 phone calls up there and spoke with many sheriffs and many medical staff members I requested on at least two dozen occasions for them to send him to the hospital and they refuse to do so and ignored me I also requested for them to change him to a different cell and they also ignored that request as well they also haven't been letting him go outside to get fresh air for activities they also have been not allowing him to make phone calls for no apparent reason I also try to visit him and for no apparent reason they block me from trying to visit with him this has been going on for the past 3 months he was also picked up by three different police divisions 77 MetroPD​ and they had a helicopter as well he didn't even live in the Los Angeles area he lived near Pasadena it was his first apartment and they got jealous and went to his apartment and confiscated all of his brand new stuff his name brand stuff in particular they ransacked his apartment and took all of his stuff of value and caused the big scene and it was him by his self Plus one of his friends they took both of them to jail and let the friend go because they really wanted him my son Meiage Seals. When he got to the jail several LAPD and several sheriff's taunted him saying yeah we just wanted to get you here and harass you and pick on you that's right and we did that and ever since he been in there they have discluded him from phone calls they have discluded him from having visits they have ignored him during medical emergency which is medical neglect I told them he needs some water on at least 25 occasions when I talk to him he said he still haven't had any water yet you still haven't been transferred to a new unit with a water fountain he still haven't been outside for over a month for the activities that the inmates participate in he also haven't had no visits and he's not on disciplinary I have made at least 400 phone calls up there with no remedy they have falsely accused him of stealing a fake gold chain when his family have given him gold chains and purchase gold chains for him for his birthday this was all a scheme to Rob him of all of his accomplishments and Rob him of all of his name brand items and name brand shoes when I went to his apartment they stole 200 pairs of Nikes from him that he purchased with his own money and they stole at least 700 to 1,000 name brand clothing items from him that his family purchased for him his girlfriend gave to him he has a very huge family. Three different police divisions that included close to 59 officers did a third party robbery on him at his apartment when he was trying to get himself together and stay away from trouble and now he has nothing left he purchased the vehicle and the car had a lot of problems so I parked the car on my street and even the city of Los Angeles is involved I came back and they told his car so now he has absolutely nothing to come home to and they also made him homeless and then when I go to court every time I go to court I said what is he in here for their story has changed at least 10 times on the reason why he's in there they still have him in there right now I would love it if the community can help out and get my son released from this men's Central jail and help him get all of his items back his wardrobe that he saved for a long time his all of his name brand shoes and clothes his car that the city of Los Angeles stole and help him getting an apartment because this was all a setup with some jealous lapds that came together like they were a big gang​

He should be released to home confinement he has a job waiting on his return home. Please look into his case. Thank you

These group of young boys (specifically white) were harassing me and 1 in particular was shoving a camera in my face less than a foot away from my damn face and taunting me. So what if I'm homeless? Leave me alone! I get it - you can film anyone including children in a public space but they were in my personal space as I asked them to leave me alone. BTW THIS WAS ALL FILMED ON THEIR PHONES!!! I took out a taser and my spring assisted knife and charged at them. If they white boy didn't move, I would have stabbed him but I stabbed their rental cars several times. Cops show up. See me with the knife. I'm automatically arrested. They never got my side of the story even though it was all on tape!!!! For my most serious crime, I only did 5 days and released with an ankle monitor. Luckily I never had to pay for any damages - I wonder why?? Lousy investigators and police work. The dude who arrested me was maybe in his mid sixties and overweight with an obvious bias towards me. You're good though if you're a paedophile though!!! They protect their own.

The court security line was never long and it moved fast. The Jury Assembly Room was pleasant and spacious. Restrooms were clean. The workers I encountered were nice and efficient. The worst part of this courthouse was definitely the elevators. Prepare to wait!!

It's likely the two were related as someone in my neighborhood seemed to be targeting me. I did not have to wait hours to see someone or have someone take a report. I was in and out quickly. The officers I spoke to took my reports seriously and a detective followed up with me right away via email. Someone from their Hate Crimes division did the same. In both cases, no one was arrested, but at least it was easy to put my account on record. After moving south to the Orange Curtain (OC), I can better appreciate the officers here. By comparison, OC couldn't give less of a crap about making things efficient, taking hate crimes seriously, or following up with people who make reports. I would wish my experiences there on no one.
