San Andreas Department of Corrections

San Andreas Department of Corrections

SADOC Crest

The San Andreas Department of Corrections is the top facility for housing felons in the state of San Andreas, not that it has any competition.

History

The San Andreas Department of Corrections opened in late 2018 by the first Warden, Elijah Reid. The prison went through it's first big change in mid 2019 with a large interior added which included a catwalk over the cellblock. The interior was then updated again in December 2020 and received a few minor changes since then.

Bolingbroke went through many iterations in design, going from a small bunker style to utilising over half of the prison.

The first divisions were opened in 2020 with the Correctional Medical Team followed by the Groundskeeping Division. Since then ten other divisions have opened up to allow Correctional Officers a wide variety of tasks to do around Bolingbroke. The most recent division, Parole and Surveillance, opened in July 2024.

The Wardens

Kourtney LaFleur (January 2022 - December 2025)

Warden Kourtney Lafleur was appointed as the Warden of Bolingbroke Penitentiary on the 27th January 2022 after the resignation of Warden Solomon Cobb. Born and raised in Vinewood Hills to her two loving parents.

Warden Kourtney LaFleur

She was an only child and was treasured by both of her parents. They doted on Kourtney as she grew up, treating her like a princess. Although neither of her parents were vegan she decided to take up the lifestyle herself. After college she studied at Psychology at ULSA where she met her first wife where she received her doctorate.

Kourtney applied to SADOC in October 2020 with her first wife after realizing that she needed to do more with her life besides posting feet pics on OnlyFans. They were seen as outcasts for their different ways of handling the job with a lighter touch than what was necessary. This led to her getting suspended on her first day for a week. Unlike her wife, Kourtney took this time to reflect on what was required for her and she came back with enthusiasm and a refreshed demeanor. Just over a month after that, she joined the Correctional Emergency Response Team, which was disbanded a few weeks later.

Kourtney began to devote a lot of her time to the Psych Team and wrote the entire handbook herself, using all the knowledge she had learned during her doctorate. She was then handed the head of Psych and continued to use this to showcase the skills she had. This helped her grow until she reached the Supervisor rank. From here she joined Human Resources and joined Command. She spent most of her time at SADOC for this period working on paperwork or hiring lots of new employees. She eventually handed over Human Resources to a budding Captain when she reached High Command and decided to focus on all aspects of the department.

Solomon Cobb (May 2021 - January 2022)

Warden Solomon Cobb was appointed as the Warden of Bolingbroke Penitentiary on the 29th May 2021 after the resignation of Warden Ren Sanchez. Born and raised in England, a man on a mission to make DOC pink.

Warden Solomon Cobb

Cobb's first career upon arriving in Los Santos in early 2020 was with the Department of Corrections, he was hired by his mentor and now-mayor of Grapeseed Herbert Butler. In the early stages of his career, Cobb worked in the Human Resources department, learning how to train and hire people and become effective at paperwork.

Working his way up the ranks, he took leadership of the Public Relations division, whilst getting qualified in as many other divisions as he could, with his eyes on the Commander of Special Divisions role. When he was eventually promoted into this position due to his expertise he continued to develop the divisions to match closer to what they are today, opportunities for employees to better themselves and have fun doing it.

As he moved on from his Human Resources Command role. his passion for Public Relations never wavered, something that can still be seen today. He maintained control of the Public Relations division throughout his tenure and made it his focus to shift the public image of the SADOC from one that is too strict and scared of inmates to one that is more easygoing and there to help the inmates. This goal became even more achievable once he attained the final rank, Warden, gaining full control over the prison and its operations.

Cobb is known for avoiding using sidearms or heavy weapons and instead focusing on only using the nightstick as his primary maiming device. He still holds the record at SADOC for the most people taken out with a single swing of a baton (5). He also was the first Warden to introduce musical Christmas trees into the solitary confinement block as a method to deter people from doing bad things in prison that would usually result in solitary confinement. It was confirmed by a SAJB judge that technically it was not torture.

Warden Ren Sanchez

One of his final changes before retiring from the position 2 years after joining, was facilitating the creation of the Felon Reformation Program division, a division dedicated to turning the lives around of inmates and getting them jobs. In January 2022, he eventually tendered his resignation, to move on to pursue other things, leaving Kourtney in charge.

Elijah Reid (December 2018 - March 2019)

Elijah Reid was the first Warden of the San Andreas Department of Corrections and laid a lot of the groundwork in terms of protocols and paperwork that the department continues to follow even to this day.

Murder in the Hallway (AKA the cause of Reina's PTSD) - February 2021

The outline of the murdered inmate

In early 2020, Correctional Officer Parrish and Harryman were performing regular duties when they were attacked between solitary and the laundry room. They attempted to defend themselves but the inmate that attacked them was far stronger. Before they went down they managed to get out a Code 1 radio call, where members of the department began to rush to their aid. As Parrish and Harryman were on the floor, Assistant Warden Reina Moraine stepped into the room and pulled out her pistol, firing on the inmate. Once the inmate was injured she reloaded and filled the inmate with a few more rounds before they were dead. Two other Correctional Officers besides the injured witnessed the event. Both Parrish and Harryman luckily survived their injuries but less than a day after Reina Moraine was arrested for murder.

Issei's Sniper Incident - March 2023

Issei zooms in on his target, prepared to shoot

SADOC were called to protect a conference at the old city hall that was being run by SAJB. CERT members were eager to join and planned ahead. A member of CERT, Issei Schneider, was tasked with overseeing the event from a distance with a sniper. The proceedings were going well until an unarmed civilian began to attack a member of GSB (Government Security Bureau) and Issei took a single shot to injure the civilian. The civilian was then treated and was taken to the hospital where he recovered. A short time after a search warrant was given to Warden Kourtney LaFleur by LSPD High Command. Issei was shortly arrested and charged for Assault with a Deadly Weapon. Governor Lewis Langley quickly intervened and pardoned Issei yet the incident still soured relations with LSPD.

Recruitment Process

When starting your journey to become an SADOC officer, there is a few steps taken.

1. Application. The application is an way for the Human Resources team to get to know what kind of person you are, as well as your history and intentions. An member of said team will go through your application and do an background check, then respond to it with either an list of things they need updated, that you moved on to the next step or denial.
2. Interview. Probably the step that most sees as most scary. It starts with you heading to SADOC and asking for a member of Human Resources for an interview. From there you will be patted down, put your fingerprint in the legal system and take an drugtest. After that, you will sit down with the human resource member and start the interview. Then, you will either get the results on the spot, or on your application later on. If you apply to become an Custodian Correctional Officer, you skip step 3.
3. Physical test. Next up is the physical test, which is to make sure your fit for duty and can keep up with what our duties requires you to. Again you go to SADOC and ask for an member of human resources. They will pat you down, then take you to one of our training grounds. ((This is when we check your roleplay out, and the roleplay will heavily depend on /me's and /do's)) After the course is complete, you again will either get results on the spot or later on your application.
4. Academy This is the final step before you become an officer.
