From the Los Angeles Times:

After pleading no contest to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge earlier this month, Kings defenseman Slava Voynov is spending part of his summer in the Seal Beach Police Detention Center.

The Seal Beach city attorney confirmed Tuesday that Voynov started serving his 90-day sentence in the city’s facility July 7.

The Seal Beach Police Department previously refused to confirm Voynov’s presence, citing longstanding department policy against confirming the names of those in custody. California law requires such information to be made public in most situations.

The Seal Beach Detention Center is the same one that’s drawn attention for its so-called “luxury” jail cells.

Here’s an advertisement the facility once placed:
