Michael Moore to oversee the county jail. Moore, who also serves as police chief in the Southern California city of Highland under a contract with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, will oversee custody and correctional operations for Monterey County, which is planning a new jail facility. “Mike is known as a problem solver at the San Bernardino Sheriff’s Office.
