We recommend that the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, no later than September 30, 2022:ĭelay full classification interviews for adults in custody moving into housing until 72 hours after booking.Įxpand supervisory review of classification decisions, with a focus on possible over-classification.Įliminate the use of isolation as a disciplinary sanction for individuals with mental health conditions. To implement some of our recommendations, the Sheriff’s Office and Board of County Commissioners, with its budget authority, may need to provide financial resources and support keeping jails below maximum capacity. Our focus was on describing conditions with a data-rich approach that could inform the ongoing community discussions about the legal system. We also want to provide information to community members about who is in our jails and the conditions they experience when incarcerated. County leadership committed to make improvements based on a 2017 Disability Rights Oregon report which found improper conditions for individuals with mental health conditions.

We conducted this audit to provide an update on jail conditions. Jail conditions were worse for people with mental health conditions.

Use of force procedures were consistent with standards, but deputies used force against Black adults in custody at a higher rate.

Discipline procedures appeared consistent with standards, but misconduct citations were handed out disproportionately to Black adults in custody, and some deputies issued much higher rates of misconduct citations.

Sheriff’s Office decisions on where individuals were housed were not as standardized and consistent as they could have been.
