Melissa, semi-nude, nude pictures are not allowed in city, state jails or prisons. If a picture is allowed, it has to be an ordinary picture, and it cannot be polaroid type pictures because you can easily rip the back of a polaroid picture and hide drugs (contraband) and carefully seal it back together. The letters you sent cannot contain things such things as sexual talk, letting him know so and so will be arriving in the facility soon, etc...Anything they suspect is suspicious will not get through to the inmate and will be destroyed. Hope this helps you, good luck. PS-If you feel what you are sending is not against jail rules, you can talk/file complaint with front inmate reception desk.

Your superb wager will be calling the ability and asking them how they favor you to do it. some places favor you to deliver it to the inmate in care of the ability or others it would only be Inmate call, SO#***** P.O. field regardless of city, State zip some places will allow you to recognize on their website or only call the detention midsection - I promise, you is truly no longer the first human being they have ever had asking that question. also, ascertain you ask about the different mail regulations - some places gained't provide help to deliver playing cards, colored envelopes, you should have your finished call and handle on the go back handle, and so on. it truly is more suitable constructive to envision.

Well, it depends on the reasons he was put there in the first place. If it was for some benign reason, mainly because it may invoke some irrational behavior in him or could be used as a way of getting him to behave. Most inmates aren't in control of their emotions or reasons.

They only thing I think of would be that there was something in the content of the letters and pictures that they do not permit or possibly they were misplaced in whatever screening process they go through.

It depends on the jail. Every jail has its own rules. Go to their website and see what they say about the mail rules.

They are jerks and the power has gone to their heads.
I would wait until your boyfriend gets out, then complain to whatever agency oversees prisons in your area.
Probably nothing will come of it, but if they get enough complaints, someone will lose their job.

Maybe he had done something that prevented him from having the privilege to get mail.

Because they can....it's that simple.
He has no rights in jail. If his regulators don't want him to get something, he doesn't get it.
