On Wednesday, May 11, 2022, an inmate housed at the Intake Release Center in Santa Ana died at the jail.
The inmate, Jade Castellanos, 44, was booked into jail on May 9, 2022 by the Huntington Beach Police Department for child endangerment, violation of a restraining order, and driving under the influence.
The female was pronounced deceased at the jail shortly after she was found unresponsive in her cell on Wednesday morning. She was housed alone at the time, and her death does not appear to be suspicious. A final cause of death will be determined following toxicology and an independent autopsy.
The Orange County District Attorney’s Office will investigate the in-custody death. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department will conduct an in-custody death review. No additional information will be released at this time.
