News Release
On February 12, 2022 at approximately 11:00 A.M., investigators from the Oxnard Police Department Violent Crimes Unit conducted a joint operation with the Ventura County Probation Agency’s Oxnard Probation and Post Release Unit, conducting probation searches to check the compliance of numerous Post Release Offenders and probationers in the City of Oxnard.
During the operation, teams comprised of investigators and probation officers conducted 32 searches throughout the City of Oxnard. As a result of the searches, two arrests were made for various probation violations.
The Post Release Offender Program was created in 2011 by Assembly Bill 109 (Public Safety Realignment). The program mandates that individuals sentenced to non-violent, non-serious or non-sex related felony offenses will serve their sentences in county jails instead of state prison. Release under AB 109 is based on the offender’s most recent commitment offense and prior convictions are not considered.
