Jack Johnson, Disability
Law Colorado, discussed proposed draft legislation on jail standards. The
draft bill would continue the Legislative Oversight Committee on Colorado
Jail Standards, and outline the specific responsibilities of the committee.
An advisory committee would be created in the County Sheriffs of Colorado
(CSOC) that would create reports on jails that would go to the oversight
committee and the Attorney General's Office. The advisory committee would
also make recommendations on updating the jail standards. He described
the Attorney General Office's role in the process.
