Dress Code:

The general rule is to dress conservatively for participation in video visitation. Our jail includes areas for video court. Professionals are entering and leaving the SCORE facility regularly. It is strongly encouraged that visitors present themselves with modest attire in the SCORE lobby and over the Internet.

Visitors are required to show respect through their conduct in respect for the court, other visitors/inmates and SCORE employees. Conservative dress means:

  • Clothing should be modest.
  • Wear clothes that are not overly revealing. No see-through attire.
  • Dress for a professional business environment and should cover your body appropriately.
  • Shoes should be worn at all times.

Failure to dress appropriately and conduct visits professionally, a standard that is determined by SCORE staff, may result in your visits being immediately interrupted /cancelled and future visiting privileges being suspended.

Introduction of Contraband

Anyone attempting to bring or introduce contraband into SCORE jail will be arrested and prosecuted under RCW 9A.76 (Introducing Contraband I, II, III). The penalty, if you are convicted, ranges from 3 months in jail to 12 years in prison depending on severity and if you have a criminal record. Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 289-02-020 defines contraband as any substance or item not specifically permitted by the SCORE Jail administration. Contraband includes anything that is not provided by the SCORE Jail or any item that has been provided that has been altered from or used outside of its original intended purpose or use. Possessing excess amounts of items provided by the SCORE Jail may be considered contraband.

Smoking / Vaping

Smoking or vaping is prohibited inside and outside the building. This includes visiting booths in the public lobby area. If you violate this rule, you are subject to a fine and your visit will be stopped. The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 70.160.075 and the King County Board of Heath Code Title 19 prohibit smoking within 25 feet of any doorway entering any public building.
