What is Security Level VFEL?
This is level 5 Felony, the highest classification for inmates in the Franklin County jail.
At first I thought this was a prison classification for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation & Correction but he is not in the state prison system yet. When he goes into the state prison system I predict he will be a Level 3 if they want him in the general population. If they want him more isolated he will be in level 4.
Level 3 - The security level that is the next degree higher than Level 2, and requires more security/supervision than Level 2, but less than Level 4. A dou- ble perimeter, razor ribbon reinforced, alarmed and patrolled fence is required for this level of security. As part of the 3-Tier prison system, Level 3 is considered General Population, but is designed for individuals who are more likely to, or have previously engage(d), in disruptive prison behavior.
Level 4 - The security level that is the next degree higher than Level 3, and requires more security/supervision than Level 3. It represents the primary security level for
Control Units in the 3-Tier System. The physical security requirements for Level 4 may vary based on the overall physical structure of the facility.
Control Units - Control units may vary from prison to prison but they can be generally characterized as: Permanently designated prisons or cells in prisons that lock prisoners up in solitary or small group confinement.
