At this central jailatm.com facility, mail will be electronically opened, scanned, and delivered to the inmate at the jail facility. Photos can be submitted, but if they show nudity, gang activity, or criminal activity, they may be delayed or rejected. All inmates are permitted to send and receive mail, except as required by court order, law, or the inmate handbook.
