Yes, there are serial killers serving time in prisons across the United States and around the world. Not all serial killers receive the death penalty and those who are not executed, whether because their state does not have capital punishment, because a deal was made, or because the death sentence was not sought, end up serving life sentences in the general prison population or in protective custody. Some of the most well known serial killers in American history are alive and...

We estimate that it takes 2-3 business days to make it to the jail. Once there, the staff opens and reads each piece of mail and inspects it for contraband. Once they decide the mail is fit to be handed out at mail call, your inmate will receive it. Any delay that occurs at the facility is out of our control. We make no guarantees as to how long it will take as there are thousands of facilities and none...

PC 3454 is not a charge for the stabbing itself. It is a post-release supervision statute, which means it relates to violations of conditions imposed after someone was already released from a prior prison sentence, not the underlying act of violence. Under California's criminal justice realignment, many people released from state prison are placed under Post-Release Community Supervision, or PRCS, which is managed at the county level rather than by state parole. PC 3454 governs how counties assess, monitor, and respond...

All federal prisons follow the same rules for phones. The phones are available from 6am - 3:30p and from 4:30p - 9:30p during the week. On weekends and holidays the phones are on from 6am - 9:30am; 10:30a - 3:30p and from 4:30p - 9:30p. The main reason is COUNT TIME. All inmate are counted at their bedside. The phones turn off so that the inmates have time to get to where they are supposed to be for COUNT TIME....

You cannot leave it blank. Facilities reject mail that comes in without a return address. It will almost certainly come back unopened, and your inmate never sees it. The good news is you do not have to use your home address. InmateAid's letter service exists specifically for this situation. When you send a letter through InmateAid, the return address on the envelope is InmateAid's office in South Florida, not your address. Your inmate gets the letter, your address stays private, and...

Call the Clerk of the Court in the county where he was charged. Court proceedings and their outcomes are public record, and the clerk's office can tell you what happened at the hearing, what charges are on file, what the next scheduled date is, and in many cases what the judge ordered. You do not need to be a family member or have any special status to access this information. Any member of the public can request it. Many counties also...

Yes, but it is limited to two brief moments during the visit. You are allowed one hug and kiss when you arrive and one hug and kiss when you leave. That is the extent of physical contact permitted during visitation at Jefferson County. During the visit itself there is no contact between visitors and inmates. You will be seated across from each other and expected to keep that separation for the duration of the visit. Any physical contact beyond the arrival...

The phone service at a particular correctional center is set up through bid process. Whichever company has the contract for all inmate outbound calling and to tape record the calls - essentially has a monopoly. Therefore, you have to use them to receive any calls. The choice is whether you pay them for a long distance call (to your number) or a local call (to a number that we get you). If you are already local, we cannot save you...
