Any person that is incarcerated ( and the charges they are being held under) are considered public knowledge.

Best advice here would be to call the number above and ask for visitation or records ( visitation has the same data base and is usually less busy). Identify your friend and get his inmate ID number ( this is called his booking number).

Any letters you write him would be addressed as:

Inmate Name and number
Name of the jail
Address
City, State and Zip Code.

While you have visitation on the phone, ask them what their rules are for mailing in envelopes and/or writing paper. I live and work in Ohio and here, regular stamps are considered contraband since they have been found to have microdots of LSD and other drugs on them. Only embossed envelopes can be mailed in and only in certain quantities.

Please remember that anything in writing will be inspected for contraband and/or gang related items ( gang writing and signs). Write in English only. If the letter cannot be "understood", it will be contrabanded and he will not get it. Note here; the letters are not "read", but scanned for obvious contraband. Write whatever you like, just remember where it is going.

Best of luck and I hope this is useful to you
