As of 2006 , although CRC was considered " one of California 's best prisons , " it was overcrowded , was " under nearly constant lockdown to prevent fights , " had buildings " so antiquated that the electricity is shut off during rainstorms so the prisoners are n't electrocuted , " had a " three-month-long waiting list " for its drug rehabilitation program , and was " short 75 guards . " In March 2007 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger visited the prison , citing its " huge overcrowding problem " in a speech on his " prison and county jail-building program . " Although CRC had been " the only California prison to house both men and women , " in April 2007 the women 's wing of CRC was closed " to make room for more men " and because " the aging facility did not have the space needed to properly care for female inmates . " About 800 female CRC inmates were moved to California Institution for Women , Central California Women 's Facility , and Valley State Prison for Women . On April 22 , 2019 , a Northrop N-9M aircraft crashed in the grounds of the facility , killing its pilot . There were no ground casualties
