Phone Calls - Inmates may not use Jail staff phones except in an emergency. Not having an account or people not accepting collect calls is not a reason to use a Jail phone. Each pod has a collect call telephone, which is normally turned-on from 10:00 AM until 11:00 PM weekdays and until 2:00 AM on weekends (as long as the Pod is clean and orderly). A list of local Bondsmen is posted on the bulletin board; they accept collect calls. To use the phone, you will need your PIN number, which is your MNI number without the letters and a 01in back. Example: If your MNI number is BCSO09MNI000437, then your PIN will be 0900043701. Inmates may not use another inmate’s PIN to make calls.
