    Men’s Central Jail was supposed to close in 2021. LA County's latest report pushes it beyond 2031

    L.A. County's plan to close Men’s Central Jail has been delayed beyond 2031 after multiple setbacks since 2020. The Jail Closure Implementation Team stated that improving conditions for those in the justice system remains a priority, but current steps are insufficient for a safe closure within five years. Supervisor Janice Hahn and others emphasized the jail's inhumane conditions, including poor hygiene, medical neglect, and recent deaths, as reasons for closure.
