Read moreNot much. At a county detention center, you essentially bring yourself and whatever you are wearing. Jewelry comes off and goes into a property bag. Personal clothing is typically replaced by facility-issued clothing. Any cash gets processed and applied to your account. Personal hygiene items from outside are usually not permitted in intake because the facility controls what products are brought into the housing units. For a 30-day sentence, the honest answer is that the facility is going to
Read moreYou cannot pre-order commissary items before you are booked because you will not have an inmate account or ID number yet. Everything runs through the account that gets created when you are processed in. However, you can absolutely set things up quickly after you arrive, and there are steps to take before you go in that make the first few days easier. The most useful thing you can do before your court date is designate someone on the outside
Read moreOn the VOP timeline first: a probation violation in Georgia moves at the court's pace, and without knowing the original charge, the terms of her probation, and what the violation consisted of, there is no reliable estimate for how long she will be held. Her attorney or the Bleckley County court can give you the most accurate picture of where the case stands and what the likely resolution looks like. On the baby: if she delivers while incarcerated, the
Read moreYes. The forwarding number on your InmateAid account points calls to whatever phone number you designate, and that number can be updated when your situation changes. Email aid@inmateaid.com with your account details and the new number you want calls forwarded to, and the team will make the change. This is worth doing promptly. If the forwarding number on file is no longer active, calls from your inmate will not connect and he will not know why. Updating the number

Read moreSex between women inmates happens, but not as often as you might imagine. It takes two to tango, if you are a lesbian you naturally would seek out other like-minded women as in any other social setting.

It is distinct from a possession charge, which would mean staff found the substance itself. Intoxication means the substance made it into the body and showed up in testing. How it gets there is where inmates demonstrate a level of creativity that never stops surprising people. The most common source is pruno, also called prison wine or toilet wine depending on
Read moreInmates control their own approved phone list. They can add and remove numbers themselves through the GTL phone system at the facility, typically using the kiosk or the phone unit interface, without needing staff involvement to make those changes. If your person has forgotten what numbers are currently on their list, the simplest way to get that information is to ask their counselor. The counselor can print out a report of the current approved numbers on file. That gives
Read more‘Intoxication’ means the same on the inside as it does on the outside. they either tested positive for a urine test for alcohol or drugs. when I was in federal, they would randomly UT inmates the day after a holiday. Alcohol got snuck in and people got wasted. It's easy enough to get weed, xanax, oxy or meth inside. BUT, if you test positive inside, you are getting some serious SHU time or worse.
