Visitation Guidelines
- Juveniles (under 17 years of age) that are related to the inmate may visit only if accompanied by their parent or legal
guardian. The parent, legal guardian accompanying the juvenile must have a current and valid photo identification card and
may be required to show proof of guardianship of the juvenile. If a juvenile visitor not related to the inmate wishes to
visit, their parent
or legal guardian must accompany them. Proof of emancipation must be provided, if applicable.
- Visitors will be required to check in at Master Control and be signed in for visitation at least thirty
minutes prior to the scheduled visiting time.
- During regular visitation there is no right of privacy. Your visitation period is monitored.
- Contact visits are normally limited to privileged (attorney, law enforcement, prosecutors, etc.) and professional visitors
(clergy, psychologist, medical, etc.) or others as designated and approved by the Detention Commander or designee. During
a contact visit, no person or device will normally monitor, record, or in any other manner interfere with the confidentiality
of
the visit, except for viewing through windows or openings to ensure the safety of the visitor and inmate.
- Privileged visitors may be allowed to visit inmates at times other than regular visiting hours. Privileged visits may be
denied when preparing inmates for court, serving meals and during lockdown or emergency situations. Privileged
visitors who want to bring or send additional individuals into the facility to visit inmates, such as investigators, may do
this by obtaining a court order or gaining prior approval from the Division Commander.
- Inmates planning a visit from visitors coming from distances over 150 miles away may request an extended visit
or an unscheduled visit. The Division Commander must approve all such visits in advance. When these visits are approved, the
inmate is notified so the visit can be scheduled on the designated date.
Visitation Rules and Regulations are as follows:
- No smoking will be allowed by any inmate or visitor while in the visiting room.
- Only three (3) visitors at a time per inmate will be allowed in the visiting room.
- Only persons seventeen (17) years of age or older, with proper identification, will be allowed in the visiting room,
except in the case of a juvenile accompanied by an adult.
- Recklessly, intentionally, or maliciously destroying, or tampering with County Property will generally result in
prosecution.
- No person who appears to be intoxicated or under the influence of drugs or narcotics will be permitted in the
visiting room.
- A warrant check is done on all visitors. A visitor with an outstanding arrant is subject to arrest and denial of
visitation.
- No visitor will record or photograph the visitation area, the inmate, or any part thereof.
Any violation of the rules of visitation will result in immediate termination of the visit, and inmates may be subject to
disciplinary procedures. Visitors who violate rules and regulations shall be subject to removal from authorized visitation
list and criminal prosecution for any associated law violation.
