Inmate Accounts Administration




                 INMATE ACCOUNTS - Inmates who want to
                 purchase items above their basic needs are able
                 to have friends or family deposit money into their
                 Jail bank account that is managed by our Inmate
                 Account Specialist.  The inmates are then able to
                 purchase items from the Commissary kiosk such
                 as books, specialty food and headphones as well
                 as the ability to make phone calls.
