Wheaton Police Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The intake process at the Wheaton Police Jail includes each of these steps:

They’ll put you in a holding cell. If the jail is really busy, you will have to wait, sometimes for many hours, before you get processed.

You will have to answer some basic questions, like your legal name, street address, date of birth and a contact person, and they’ll also ask about your psychological and medical history. Next, you will be issued an inmate ID number and you will be fingerprinted. Then, any personal property you have will get taken away from you and stored until you are released.

You will be allowed to use the phone so you can call family, friends, or loved one.

If you think you will get released quickly, you might be allowed to keep wearing street clothes, but if you are not expected to make bail quickly you you will have to change into a jail issued jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

When you pay your bail, you will be allowed to go home after you get discharged. Getting discharged takes from 30 minutes to hours or even all day long. In other words the quicker bail is posted, the faster you will get out of jail. Also, how fast you get released will depend on whether you’ve been given a bond amount or if a judge must decide on the amount of bail to be set. For minor offenses, you will simply be booked and released on your own recognizance. When you have completed your jail sentence and know the discharge date, you should plan to be discharged in the morning.

You have to have the person’s first and last name. Or, you can just go down to the jail and ask one of the officers. You should know that if you do have an outstanding warrant, they will take you into custody immediately.

Arrest Record Search

If you know the person’s first and last name, and possibly an arrest date, contact the jail, either by phone, go there in person, or find out online. Records of arrests are a matter of public record and the information is freely available.

Court Records

Court Records are considered public records, so they are accessible to anyone who requests them. They include a court case file containing a docket sheet and any of the filings and documents filed in your court case. You are able to access the court records on the website, or at the Traverse County Clerk of Court in the county where the case was filed.

Criminal Records

Each state maintains records of their state citizen’s criminal background. These online databases are linked together so you are able to track criminal backgrounds from any other state. You can go to courthouse and inquire, or check online. It is helpful to know the county the crime was committed in, and if the crime was in a totally different state, you may have to pay a fee for a more complete search.

When you look up someone’s criminal record you can find out if someone has been arrested, charged, or convicted for DWI or DUI, drug offenses, kidnapping, rape or other sexual assault, violent crimes, or property crimes like theft or larceny.

Money & Commissary

The rules for sending money to someone in jail could change, so we suggest that you visit the Wheaton Police Jail site before you send any money.

How To Send Money to an Inmate at Wheaton Police Jail

You will have your own ‘bank account’ while in jail. This money is used to purchase items from the Commissary. Family and friends can deposit money into this account for you, and any money you earn while in prison will also be deposited into your account. Outside money can be paid in to your account via a money order, cash or check. If someone sends a check or money order, make sure that they write your inmate ID on it. The maximum amount you are allowed in your account is $290 per month.

Guidelines For Sending Money To An Inmate

Before you send any money you should find out what online money transfer companies the jail your inmate is incarcerated in uses. The exact method that the Wheaton Police Jail uses changes frequently, so it is best to call them at 320-563-4214 to get the current payment method.

You may be required to be on the inmate’s visitation list in order to send them money, and be aware that they may have a limit on how much you deposit at one time, like $200-300 at a time, or a limit on how much money may be in the inmate’s account at one time.

Some of the money transfer firms being used by various facilities include JPay, MoneyGram, AccessCorrections, OffenderConnect, Touchpayonline, JailATM, WU, smartdeposit, and tigercommissary.

If an inmate has fines or are required to pay restitution then they will be subject to garnishment of their commissary/trust account. If the inmate has a garnishment, then money to pay them will be taken from the inmateâ€™s bank account. In some cases it may be a percentage or the entire amount of the obligation, but the actual percentage depends on the circumstances. We recommend that inmates talk to the counselor at their facility and try to find out. You can also try to make an arrangement so that only a percentage of your commissary funds are taken, instead of all your funds take at one time.

Commissary

The commissary is the Wheaton Police Jail store. You can purchase a number of things here, like personal items, food, and things for writing. Bear in mind that you will most likely want to use the commissary daily, and any infractions will get that privilege taken away from you.

The Commissary will sell an assortment of different products that the inmate can purchase if they have enough money in their trust account. These items include clothes, shoes, small snacks and other food items, in addition to hygiene products like soap, shampoo, and disposable razors for shaving. The commissary also sells other things like books and magazines, televisions and radios, playing cards, headphones, MP3 players, and electronic tablets. They also sell everything need to write home to family, friends, and loved ones: paper, envelopes, and stamps. If an inmate is indigent and cannot afford paper and stamps, the jail will provide these things to an inmate who has not had any money in their commissary account for at least 30 days.

Phone Calls & Phone Usage Policy

All phone calls from the Wheaton Police Jail are made through a jail approved pre-paid phone account or phone card . Calls made in jail are a lot more expensive than regular phone calls. Inmates are able to make phone calls, with restrictions on how often you can use the phone, but you should keep in mind that there are a limited number of phones, so all the inmates must share phone time. If you break the jail rules, your ability to use the phone might get cut back or cut altogether.

How To Save Money on Inmate Calls

Correctional facility phone service providers have exclusive contracts at every facility that they operate the phone services for, which means that they get to set the prices. The money these phone service providers make from all inmate phone calls are shared with the facility, so there is no incentive for the jail or the counselors at the facility to show inmates or their family how to save money on inmate phone calls at the Wheaton Police Jail. The rates are posted and there are at least two pricing tiers based on where the inmate is calling. These three factors will determine how much an inmate phone call will cost: Where you are located; Where your inmate is located, What type of phone number you have.

For example, if your inmate is in federal prison, if you get a new local number then this will decrease your inmate’s phone call rate from $.21 per minute to only $.06 per minute.

For the other correctional facilities like state prisons, and local and county jails learning how to lower your inmates phone charges can be more difficult. ArrestedResources.com is an expert in keeping up with all of the changes that affect your inmate’s calling rate and in most cases is able to offer you an inmate calling number that will save you significantly on calling your inmate. There are some prisons or jails where we will not be able to save you any money, and therefore we will not offer you an inmate calling number. In these cases, the jail has set their calling prices so high that nobody will be able to save you money.
