Intake Procedures

The intake process at the Enigma Police Jail takes you through each of these steps:

First, you will answer a bunch of questions, such as what is your full legal name, address, birth date and an emergency contact, and they’ll also ask you about your medical and psychological history. Next, you’ll be given an inmate ID and you will get fingerprinted. Then, all personal property will get taken away from you and will be stored until you are released.

They will allow you to use the telephone in order to get in touch with family, friends, or loved one.

If you think you will get released quickly, you might be allowed to wear your street clothes, if not you you will be given a jail issued jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

When you finally post bail, you will get released from jail. Getting discharged from jail takes between 15 minutes to hours or even all day long. Or, simply, the faster bail is posted, the faster you will get released. It also depends on if you’ve got a cash bond amount or if a magistrate has to decide on your bail amount. For a minor charge, you will be booked and get released without having to post bail. If you have served a sentence in jail and have a discharge date, expect to be discharged at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

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 inmate’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 Enigma Police Jail store. You can purchase several different things here, such as personal items, food, and things for writing. Keep in mind that you will probably need to buy things from the commissary on a daily basis, and any infractions will cause you to lose commissary privileges.

These items include clothes, shoes, small snacks and other food items, as well as 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.

How To Save Money on Inmate Calls

Correctional facility phone service providers have a monopoly at each facility that they operate, which means that they they control the prices. The money these phone service providers make off of all of the inmate phone calls are split 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 Enigma Police Jail. The rates are posted and there are at least two types of prices based on where the inmate is calling. These three things 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 state prisons and local jails figuring out how to lower your inmates phone charges is 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 a lot of money on calling your inmate.
