You will be placed in a holding cell. If the jail is really busy, you may not be processed immediately.

First, you will answer some basic questions, such as your full legal name, address, birth date and an emergency contact person, and they’ll also ask about your medical and psychological history. Next, you will be issued an inmate ID and your fingerprints will be taken. Then, any personal property you have will be taken away from you and stored until you are discharged.

You will be allowed to make a telephone call to get in touch with a member of your family, friend, or somebody else who can help you get out.

Discharge Procedures

Once bail has been posted, you will get discharged from jail. Getting discharged from jail will take between 10 minutes to many hours. In simple terms, the faster bail is posted, the faster you will be released. Also, it might depend on whether you’ve got a cash bond amount or if a judge still needs to determine the amount of bail to be set.

When you have served out your jail sentence and are given a discharge date, plan to be released at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

Court Records

Court Records are public records and available to anyone. Court Records include a court case file that contains a docket sheet and all of the documents and filings filed in your court case. You are able to access your court records via the internet, or at the clerk’s office of the court where the case was filed.

Each state maintains a record of someone’s criminal background. These state databases are linked together and you can track criminal convictions from other states. You are able to go to the Iowa County Courthouse and make an inquiry, or check online. You must know which county the crime occured in, and if it was in a different state, you might have to pay for a more intensive search.

Money & Commissary

The procedure to send funds to inmates change frequently, so you should visit the Rewey Police Jail website when you send any money.

How To Send Money to an Inmate at Rewey 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 Rewey Police Jail uses changes frequently, so it is best to call them at 608-943-6161 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 Rewey Police Jail store. Inmates can buy different things here, like personal items, food, and things for writing. Remember that you will most likely want to buy things from the commissary daily, and any infractions will cause you to lose commissary privileges.

The Commissary will sell a selection of different products that inmates can purchase if they have sufficient funds in their commissary account. These items include clothes, shoes, small snacks and other food items, as well as personal hygiene products such as 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

The only phone calls that Rewey Police Jail inmates are allowed to make are collect calls or through a pre-paid phone account . Jail phone calls are usually pricier than phone calls made outside of jail. There are certain restrictions about how often you can use the phone, but inmates should keep in mind that there are a limited number of phones, so all the inmates must share phone time. If you are under any sort of disciplinary procedure, phone privileges could be reduced or forbidden.

How To Save Money on Inmate Calls

Correctional facility phone service providers have exclusive contracts at every facility that they operate, 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 Rewey Police Jail. The rates are posted and there are at least two pricing tiers based on where the inmate is calling. These three things 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 learning 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 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 will not be able to save you money on your inmate calls, and in these cases we will not offer you an inmate calling number. In these cases, the jail has set their calling prices so high that nobody can save you money.
