Visitor Policy

Interview with Emily, Kelly, Katrina, Billy and Cory

JM: How often could you receive visitors?
Emily: once a week
Kelly: I choose to not have visitors. I did see my attorney and the process was easy. We spoke thru the visitor glass but I could hear well.
Katrina: You can only have 5 visitors on your list but if one person registers of the five they can't come whoever registers first for that week
Billy: We receive visits once a week. At the visit you cant physically see them its on a tv screen.
Cory: I never received any visitors because you had to be there at least 30 days in order to receive visitors. On some of my incarcerations I was there more than 30, but I did not fill out a visition card.

JM: Was the check-in process lengthy for those who came to see you?
Kelly: When my attorney came to see me she got right in and we talked thru a plate of glass.
Katrina: You have to register online before you can come visit and it has to be 24 hours before the day of the visit to be able to see you
Billy: The check in process was lenghy because you have to have registered online first before your visit. You have to wait until your time to visit. If the booth video isnt working then you have to wait until someone leaves from that booth.
Cory: I have never had a visitor, but I understand that the process was lengthy, because of the number of inmates Fulton county house and the number of visitors they have to serve.

JM: What was the visiting environment like?
Kelly: We spoke thru the visitor glass but I could hear well. At first it was difficult to hear her but she moved to a place where we were able to discuss things over the phone which allowed me to hear her better.
Katrina: The visit is a video visit that only lasts for twenty five minutes on a small little screen thr sometimes is blurry and does not work and it does not give you a warning it just hangs up at the end of the visit so it ok for a video chat
Billy: The visiting enviroment was not so great for the inmate. We sit on hard metal benches and it very cold in the booths. Its not very private because you can hear other people conversation The visitor had it great. They had comfortable seats,snack machine if you get hungry. They two restrooms and water fountains
Cory: Of course, I am told there is no touching contact, you talk through a glass and you are in a locked room, where the officer has to put you in and come back and get you. Though you have not had any contact with the visitor and you are separated by glass, A strip search is done after each visit.
