If someone is arrested in Seal Beach, they may be held temporarily at the local police department or transferred to a county-operated facility depending on the charge, time of arrest, and available space. Understanding where your loved one is booked and housed is the first step in securing their release. Below are the primary facilities involved in the arrest and booking process in and around Seal Beach.
The Seal Beach Police Department operates a short-term holding facility used for processing recent arrests within city limits. Individuals arrested for misdemeanors or pending transfer are typically held here for a limited time — usually less than 72 hours.
⏱️ Note: If the defendant cannot be bailed out quickly or is facing a more serious offense, they will likely be transferred to one of Orange County’s main detention centers.
Located in Santa Ana, the Intake/Release Center (IRC) is the central hub for all countywide arrests, including transfers from Seal Beach. This facility handles the full intake process, including fingerprinting, medical screening, and classification before housing.
🏢 Most Seal Beach arrestees are transferred to IRC if they’re not released from the city jail within a short timeframe.
The Theo Lacy Facility, located in the city of Orange, is one of the largest jails in California and houses medium to maximum-security inmates. Individuals with serious felony charges or those awaiting trial may be transferred here after booking at IRC.
Also known as “The Farm,” the James A. Musick Facility is located in Irvine and houses minimum-security inmates, including non-violent offenders and those serving short sentences. It’s also used to help relieve overcrowding at other jails.

While Seal Beach is a relatively quiet coastal city, arrests still occur — particularly related to DUI, theft, and domestic disputes. At Cali Bail Bonds, we’ve helped countless families navigate the bail process for the following common charges. Here’s what you need to know about each offense, including typical bail amounts and how we can help get your loved one out fast.
Penal Code § 273.5 makes it a crime to inflict physical injury on a current or former spouse, cohabitant, or dating partner. Domestic violence cases are taken very seriously in Orange County and can result in immediate arrest and high bail.
Vehicle Code § 23152 prohibits operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or both. DUI is one of the most common arrests in Seal Beach due to DUI checkpoints, beach-area traffic stops, and weekend patrols.
Health & Safety Code § 11350(a) prohibits the possession of controlled substances without a prescription. While Prop 47 reclassified many of these cases as misdemeanors, possession of opioids, fentanyl, or prescription meds is still a frequent arrest in the area.
Penal Code § 459 defines burglary as entering a structure with intent to commit theft or any felony. Burglaries in Seal Beach are often second-degree (commercial), but residential cases do occur, especially in vacation homes or unlocked garages.
Penal Code §§ 484 & 488 apply to theft of property valued under $950. This includes shoplifting and minor theft — both common around Seal Beach shopping centers, grocery stores, and parked vehicles near the beach.
