Audit context

What the response says and how it was assessed

Response says

YCSO agrees with MJUSD’s response and says the program is not decentralized or lacking supervision, citing the district director and law-enforcement sergeants.

Audit analysis

Page 4 proposes formalizing MJUSD oversight roles. Page 5 separately says a dedicated SRO supervisor is desired but infeasible without allocations. These distinct statements are preserved rather than treated as proof that additional oversight is unnecessary.

The jury-facing position is implied. Existing named supervisors explain the dispute, but the finding’s statement that the Sheriff identified additional supervision needs is not reconciled here; no supervisory record is supplied.

Scoring confidence: medium
