The Department of Corrections is the correctional law enforcement branch of the state of San Andreas.
General Overview[]
The Department of Corrections (DoC) in the state of San Andreas serves as the primary correctional authority, overseeing the management and operations of Bolingbroke State Penitentiary as a sister branch to the San Andreas State Marshals under the Department of Justice. This facility houses inmates with a range of sentences, from temporary confinement to life imprisonment and capital punishment.
The DoC staff, including Corrections Officers, well-trained LEOs maintaining order and security within the prison. These officers are tasked with supervising inmates, ensuring discipline, and providing a safe environment. Additionally, Corrections officers and ranks above of the department are selected to act as Bailiffs in high-profile court cases, demonstrating the versatility and critical importance of the DoC's responsibilities. The department is also responsible for the secure transport of inmates to and from the penitentiary.
As of March 2, 2024, the Department of Corrections was placed under the jurisdiction of the City Council, with Carmine Costello and Bobby Charles appointed as its heads, with the approval of Chief Justice Alan Crane. Uniquely, they prefer the titles "Barons" instead of Wardens and refer to their staff as "Guardians," reflecting a distinct organizational culture.
On May 7, 2024, Fingle Dan was appointed as the Commissioner of the DoC, granting him higher clearance than the Wardens and making him directly answerable to Alan Crane. A significant restructure of the State Constitution on July 10, 2024, further integrated the Department of Corrections under the Department of Justice. This transition placed Justice John Bailey in charge of the penitentiary as Warden, aligning the DoC's operations with broader judicial oversight.
On Sept 15, 2024 Justice John Bailey stepped down from his position as Warden. Justice Brittany Angel gave Scotty Bard position of Interim Warden for a probationary period later that day. Scotty Bard worked in this position and role, leading a successful and passionate but underequipped department in the state of San Andreas.
On Feb 19, 2025, Interim Warden Scotty Bard stepped down from his position, along with Captain's Suki Cruz, Sheamus McCarthy, and Quinton Quantum. In his place Justice Arcadia Grayson appointed Deputy Warden Gary Kebun as the new Interim Warden. Under Warden Kebun's rule, the DOC focused on the development of the warehouse on the northside of the Bolingbroke Penitentiary parking lot. In the warehouse there was a farm, a classroom, shooting range, and workbenches for producing furniture.
On April 07, 2025, Interim Warden Gary Kebun was removed from the position, and Deputy Warden Yui Ishida was appointed as the new Interim Warden.
Staff[]
Civilians are hired for Department of Corrections by the Warden under recommendation from FTO Certified Officers. The civilians put in an application for the Department of Corrections and are then interviewed by the Recruiters. If successful, they are put into a cadet phase and attend an on boarding were they learn the basics of operation inside the facility. Officers working under the department of corrections are considered LEOs and as such have to take an oath to the state.
Corrections Officers greet prisoners at the entrance gate, and operate and defend Bolingbroke Penitentiary. the missions of Correctional LEOs are to assist prisoners with rehabilitation, by providing them with education and work release opportunities. As well as protecting them from other inmates or outside forces.
The Corrections Officers communicate on a radio frequency 15 separate from the police department, but are able to contact LEOs or EMS. The Corrections Officers are able to observe 311 dispatch calls at all times, this ensures that they are aware ahead of time in the event of an emergency situation.
In case of need, corrections officers can be deputized by the San Andreas State Marshals and work in conjunction with them in outside operations. Once deputized, COs are technically above in terms of jurisdiction from County Law Enforcement Agencies.
