Frontier County Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The intake procedure at the Frontier County Jail includes the following steps:

You will get put in a holding cell. If there are a lot of arrests, you will have to wait, sometimes for many hours, before you get processed.

First you have to answer some basic questions, like what is your legal name, home address, birthdate and contact person, and they’ll also ask you about your medical and psychological history. Next, you will be issued an inmate ID and you will get fingerprinted. Then, all of your personal property will be taken away from you and stored until you are discharged.

They will let you make a phone call to get in touch with a member of your family, friend, or loved one.

If you think you will get released quickly, they will let you keep wearing street clothes, if not you you will have to wear a jail jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

Once you are able to post bail, you will be discharged from jail. Getting discharged takes anywhere from 30 minutes to hours or even all day long. So, the quicker you post bail, the quicker you can get released from jail. Also, it depends on whether you’ve got a cash bond amount or if a magistrate must figure out how much to set your bail at. For a minor offense, you will be booked and get released without having to post bail. When you get to the end of your sentence and have a release date, expect to get released at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

The rules for sending money to someone in jail at the Frontier County Jail could change, so check the Frontier County Jail site before you send funds to an inmate.

How To Send Money to an Inmate at Frontier County 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 Frontier County Jail uses changes frequently, so it is best to call them at (308) 367-4411 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 Frontier County Jail store. An inmate can buy different things here, like toiletries, snacks and writing supplies. Remember that you will probably want to use the commissary every day, and any infractions will cause you to lose commissary privileges.

The Commissary will sell a selection of different products that the inmate can buy if they have enough money in their trust account. These items include clothes, shoes, small snacks and other food items, as well as personal 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.

How To Save Money on Inmate Calls

Correctional facility phone service companies have exclusive contracts at every facility that they operate, which means that they they control how much it costs to make phone calls. 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 Frontier County Jail. The prices are posted and there are at least two types of prices based on where the inmate is calling. These three factors will determine the cost of an inmate phone call: 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 finding out how to decrease your inmates phone charges is more difficult. ArrestedResources.com keeps up to date with all of the changes that affect your inmate’s rate and in most cases is able to offer you an inmate calling number that will save you significantly on inmate phone calls. In some cases, we won’t be able to save you money on your inmate calls, and therefore we will not offer you an inmate calling number. In these cases, the facility has set their inmate calling prices so high that nobody can save you money.
