No solitary, are you kidding they have em sleeping on the floor as it is. I don't know about visiting hours but you must be related to the prisoner to visit them.

Some states have court access via the Internet free of charge as it is public information.  Some states require written requests.  In Wisconsin, the "Circuit Court Access" or "CCAP" is available for free.  I know Arizona has one too but it is more limited as to the information they give out.  Do some searches related to the state you are in and see if you get some hits.

Most state Department of Corrections do not post photographs of inmates online.  This would be create threats to the inmate if someone is looking for him.

No, a very few facilities allow extremely limited and closely monitored access for educational purposes and a couple of facilities are "test driving" a program that allows e-mail to be sent and recieved, for a fee and again very closely monitored, but you will not find any chat rooms, message boards or 360 type connections.\nWhen you see a page that purports to be an inmate's home page, either that person is lying or else a friend on the outside maintains the page.\nYou contact options are the US mail, collect and outrageously expensive calls and visiting.

I don't think that it occurs to a lot of people that there is free internet access at libraries.\n\nEspecially now-a-days when so many people have computers in their own homes.... most people spend so much time at their house watching television and surfing the net, they don't make it to their local library.\n\nI'm glad you've found a means to access such a great resource.  I hope you make the most of it.

Hmm, that's a good question. Unfortunately they don't allow internet access in county jail. So I doubt that you'll get answer. \n\nGO BRONCOS!!!

Even if you could, the websites would be written in Spanish.\n\nHabla usted Español?\n\nIf not, then I don't rate your chances.\n\nThere is no magical list of prison inmates available for general public viewing, as this kind of thing is usually covered by the data protection act and not available to the general public at large.  There is a place you can write to in the UK and an attempt will be made to find a person in custody in a UK jail and pass on a letter to see if they desire contact (Prisoner Location Service, PO Box 2152, Birmingham, B15 1SD) and individual US state records are fairly easy to access via the appropriate department of correction, but I am not sure the Spanish equivalent of the prison service operate such a "prisoner finding" scheme, and if they did, like I said above, you'd need to speak the lingo to get anywhere with your request.

Just wanted to add that there is a wonderful support and information group at http://prisontalk.com\nThere is a forum dedicated to just Ohio questions and discussions.\nI've got a "someone special" locked up, too, and this group has helped me a great deal.

Sorry Inmates but I feel That prisoners are in jail for crimes committed: Why is it that we have to keep them entertained by using computers that have access to cause more harm.This also gives way to much access to outside connections from the lives that they affected before going into correctional facilities. I'm sure that there are a lot of other people can benefit from use of computers that just can't afford them. That is why we have JAILS right;;;

Maybe I'm just a little slow today but what is it, EXACTLY, that you're trying to obtain? There are various websites you can go to in order to obtain pix (mugshots) of people who've gotten incarcerated but it's all kind of willy-nilly. If you have a particular person in mind, you can backtrack by determining where & when they were picked up & booked & usually you can get a booking photo of them online.\n  Otherwise, you're pretty much S.O.L. unless they (the person in question) had photos posted prior to incarceration. It's not a perfect system but one thing it doesn't do is allow inmates to get online for fear of the crimes, real or imagined, that 'the authorities' believe they might perpetrate on the rest of society. God only knows, We, & I say we having been a former inmate in a variety of state prisons for almost a third of my life, would give Anything to have Internet access in order to help pass the time.

You know, I am totally opposed to inmates having internet access.

The only way they would be able to see what you were showing on your webcam is if you either were broadcasting to a website, or if using something like IM, they would need to be involved in your chat session.  Just because you are accessing the net does not give your isp access to see what you are doing.  They can see what sites you visit, email you send/receive (that come thru their email server) and thats about it.  Now there are law enforcement groups that can, but not isp's.
