Frequently Asked Questions

How do I put money into an inmates account?
You may only place money into an inmates account in the form of a money order or cashier’s check made out to the inmate. These can be dropped off at the Dispatch window located in the Jail lobby or mailed to the inmate at the Sheriff’s Office address.

What is the mailing address of the Sheriff’s Office?

 171 Industrial Park

Monticello, FL 32344

 

Who would I contact to get bond information?

 Our best suggestion would be to contact a Bail Bondsman. They will need to know who you want to bail out and what facility they are incarcerated in.

 

When can I see an inmate?

Inmates visitation times are set according to the cell area in which they are being housed. The booking Officer on duty may be able to provide this information once the inmate has been classified and placed in their assigned cell area.

 

Can I call an inmate?

No. Inmates can call you provided that you are not the victim of the crime they are accused of. Inmates have access to phones from 8am to 10pm on a daily basis. Phone access is provided by Paytel. You may contact Paytel at 1-800-729-8355 for phone rates and to setup billing options.

 

Can I give or drop off items for an inmate?

No. We do not accept property for inmates. All items an inmate needs can be bought from the commissary. Medicines are dispensed through the jail medical facility. We do realize that special needs can and do arise for these circumstances arraignments can be made with the Jail Commander.
