General Description The Office of Inspector General (OIG) is the independent law enforcement agency dedicated to maintaining the safety and security of the Texas juvenile justice system. It has statutory responsibility to investigate criminal allegations involving TJJD juveniles, employees, facilities, contractors, volunteers or programs within the Texas juvenile justice system. OIG inspectors general oversee criminal investigations and possess all the power and duties granted to peace officers under the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. Their authority extends to parole officers and facilities operating under contract with TJJD. Specialized inspectors employed by the OIG investigate allegations of abuse, neglect and exploitation by staff against justice‑involved youth at both the state and county levels. The OIG also provides security at gatehouses, controlling the ingress and egress of all personnel and vehicles. Additionally, they are responsible for detecting and intercepting contraband to prevent its introduction into secure facilities operated by the TJJD. The OIG operates the 24‑hour Incident Reporting Center (IRC), serving as the reporting and clearinghouse for the Texas juvenile justice system. The IRC receives and documents allegations of criminal and administrative misconduct including fraud, waste, abuse, neglect and exploitation related to juveniles, facilities and programs under the jurisdiction of the TJJD. Criminal analysts employed by the OIG compile and submit reports regarding criminal and administrative investigations and OIG operations to the TJJD board members, the legislature and other state agencies. They also monitor compliance with the TJJD Use of Force Plan. The OIG operates as a commissioned peace officer for the Office of Inspector General at the Juvenile Justice Department. Work involves planning, organizing, and conducting investigations on agency property or involving agency interests. Work may require use of canine partners to aid in the detection, interception and investigation of contraband within secure and non‑secure TJJD‑operated and contracted facilities and detection of articles and human scents in the event of an escape. The position works under limited supervision, with moderate latitude for the use of initiative and independent judgment.
