Being recently released from jail does not automatically disqualify you from visiting your husband, but it does mean you cannot walk in as a standard visitor without additional steps. Most facilities have a policy restricting visitation from people with recent criminal justice involvement, and Powell County Detention Center in Kentucky is no exception to that general rule. What works in your favor here is significant. You are legally married, you have documentation to prove it, and you have a

Research on incarcerated populations consistently shows that consensual sexual activity between female inmates occurs at notably higher rates than in male facilities. Estimates vary, but studies have placed the rate of sexual contact among women in prison significantly higher than among men, with some research suggesting that a substantial majority of women in longer-term facilities have some sexual experience with another woman while incarcerated. The reasons are not
Read moreYes, inmates can write back, and the way the addressing works is one of the features people appreciate most about the service. When InmateAid sends a letter to your inmate, the return address printed on the envelope is InmateAid's address in Florida. Your personal home address does not appear anywhere on the outside of the envelope. Your inmate sees your name as you registered it on the account, and whatever you choose to share within the body of the

If you are asking this question, something has already made you uncertain. That instinct is worth paying attention to.

There is a process that requires an application be filed stating your reasons for the pardon. It is submitted to the Office of the Pardon Attorney who reviews and recommends a short list each year. It is a long shot and statistically-speaking it has little chance for success

Read moreThis is one of the most painful questions that lands in this archive, and it deserves a straight answer rather than a diplomatic one. There are two kinds of men, and incarceration does not change which kind someone is. It reveals it. A man who was faithful, grateful, and genuinely invested in his relationship before he went in will come out of that experience with a deeper appreciation for the person who stood by him. He knows what

An inmate's housing assignment, including who they share a cell with, falls under the same privacy protections as everything else about their life inside. The official position of virtually every correctional facility is that this information is not disclosed to outside parties. If you call the general line and ask who your person's cellmate is, you are almost certainly going
