Most of the inmates who are being held in the Ames Jail will either be bailed out or they will be transferred to the county facility within 72 hours.

As of late, the Ames Jail does not have the capacity to house many inmates, so inmates are constantly either being bailed out or transferred to the county facility rather quickly.

Inmate Search

The Ames Jail is a city facility. Why does this matter when it comes to an inmate search?

Well, since inmates are only in the Ames Jail for only a short time, they will not have a public roster. So, in the chance that you are looking for an inmate, you are required to get in contact with them.

Sending a Mail/Care Package

When it comes to the package and mail portion of the facility, you will not be surprised when we say that the facility does not permit this activity.

Since the inmates of Ames Jail really do not stay here long enough to warrant this feature, they have banned this feature all together.

Sending Money

The Ames Jail does not allow you to send money to the inmate. There is no use for money when they are in the Ames Jail. You will need to refrain from doing such until he or she is brought down to the county correctional facility.

Phone calls

When the inmate is being brought into the Ames Jail, he or she will be given one free phone call. After they are fully booked into the facility, he or she will be able to call home. However, this call will incur fees as it is a collect call. You will be the one in charge of paying said fees.

Visitation

Inmates will not be permitted to have personal visitation visits. However, inmates can have privileged visits with his or her attorney while they are in the Ames Jail.

You will need to wait until he or she is in a county facility before you can have a personal visit with them.
