Soter RS Full Body Scanners
The implementation of the Soter RS full body scanner at the Cameron County jail system marks a significant advancement in enhancing security and safety within the facility. This state-of-the-art scanning technology allows for thorough and non-invasive detection of contraband items concealed on or within the bodies of inmates.
In 2021, Sheriff Eric Garza implemented the use of the Soter RS full body scanner at Carrizales Rucker Detention Center, which was later expanded to the Old County Jail in 2022, bringing significant benefits to the jail system, detention officers, inmates, and the community as a whole. The Soter RS scanner enhances the security measures within the jail system by providing a non-invasive and thorough method of detecting contraband items hidden on or within inmates. This implementation increases safety for both detention officers and inmates, as it reduces the risks associated with concealed contraband. By minimizing the presence of illicit items within the facilities, the Soter RS scanner helps create a more controlled and secure environment, fostering a safer atmosphere for everyone involved. Additionally, this technology demonstrates the administration's commitment to modernizing the jail system and improving the overall welfare of inmates. Ultimately, the implementation of the Soter RS full body scanner reflects Sheriff Garza's dedication to promoting safety, security, and rehabilitation within the Cameron County jail system, benefiting detention officers, inmates, and the community as a whole.
