Inmate location information on third-party sites, including InmateAid, does not update in real time. When a facility moves an inmate to a different unit or housing assignment within the same prison complex, that change may not be reflected immediately in outside databases. The Arizona Department of Corrections inmate locator is always the most current source for placement information, and checking there directly is the right move when you suspect something has changed. The good news in this situation is

Not reliably. If your inmate was transferred before the letter arrived at the facility, there is a good chance it comes back to us rather than following them to the new location. Facilities do not forward inmate mail the way the postal service forwards residential mail. If the letter is returned, InmateAid will notify you immediately, research the new address, and resend it to the correct location. You will not lose the letter and you will not be charged

Letters and photos sent through InmateAid typically take one to three business days to reach a facility. After that, delivery depends on how quickly the mail room inspects and processes incoming mail before distributing it at mail call. That part is outside anyone's control and can add a day or two depending on the facility's volume and staffing. Being placed in isolation, the SHU, or segregation does not stop incoming mail in most facilities. Your husband should still be

There are no conjugal visits in federal prison. Conjugal visits in state prison can only occur of the parties are legally married.

Garfield County Adult Detention Center in Oklahoma does not permit inmates to marry while housed there. That is not unique to Garfield County. Most county jails across the country restrict or outright prohibit inmate marriages, and Oklahoma county facilities generally fall into that category. The distinction between facility types matters here. The federal Bureau of Prisons does permit inmates to marry while incarcerated, and many state prison systems do as well, though policies vary considerably from state to state.

Only federal inmates have access to an email account. The program is called CorrLinks and it is a closed environment. Inmates in state or county facilities generally do not have the ability to receive or send email messages. NO inmate has access to the Internet.

Yes, you may send items like books, magazines and newspapers to your inmate as long as they are coming from the "publisher". InmateAid's website is set up choose from a wide variety of permitted items. You cannot choose commissary items for inmates. You must send money to them and they are permitted to shop once a week.

The line is nudity. Anything that crosses into exposed private areas will be rejected by the mail room. Everything short of that is generally acceptable. Bikini photos, lingerie, and suggestive poses are fine as long as nothing is explicitly exposed. Facilities inspect all incoming mail and photos, and images containing nudity will be confiscated before they ever reach your boyfriend. In some cases a facility may flag the sender's account for future scrutiny if explicit content is found, so

Phone access varies by facility type, but most prisons and jails allow calls during waking hours, generally from 6:00 AM to 9:30 PM. Breaks throughout the day are common, and access can be restricted at any time at the facility's discretion. County jails operate a little differently. Some have phones directly in the cells or housing units, which means calling can happen around the clock without a set schedule. Others follow the same structured hours as larger facilities. If

No to all three parts of that question, and here is why. Letters do not reach an inmate the same day they are sent, regardless of how they are delivered. All incoming mail goes through the facility mail room first, where staff inspect each piece for contraband before it gets to mail call. That process adds at least a day, and often more depending on mail volume and the facility's schedule. Writing back the same day is not
