Call Inmates

Inmates are not able to receive incoming calls. Inmates may place collect calls from the jail to private numbers after an account is made with Securus Family and Friends 800-844-6591.

Phone Use

During the booking and classification process staff may allow inmates to place non-toll calls to procure bond or for verified family emergencies. After this initial call, staff will not provide telephone assistance except in emergency situations. All other calls to contact family, friends, employers, attorneys, etc., will be made on the collect call telephones.

Telephone calls to the public defender and other inmate assistance programs are, in general, not subject to a charge.

All calls, with the exception of attorney / client privileged conversation, may be monitored and / or recorded for the safety of staff, inmates, the community and the security of the facility.
