Reporters may visit an inmate the same way as any visitor, but on-camera interviews or audio recording are not permitted. All visits take place in the facility visiting room. A reporter must be on the inmate's visitor list to schedule an in-person or virtual visit. Reporters interested in interviewing an incarcerated individual should contact that person directly and ask to be added to their visitor list.
How can I speak with an inmate over the telephone?
To receive calls from an inmate, the inmate must place you on his/her telephone list, and you must set up an account with our inmate telephone vendor. Please note that inmates may not be compensated for a media interview.
