Reviews by Tanya



JM: Which jail did you visit?
Tanya: Waukesha County Jail, Waukesha, WI

JM: How long ago was your visit?
Tanya: Three days

JM: How many times did you visit?
Tanya: 3 times so far

JM: How do you go about making an appointment to see an inmate?
Tanya: They didn't set appointments, there is a schedule for visitation times on the Website at http://www.waukeshacounty.gov/defaultwc.aspx? id=38342

JM: How long did check-in process take?
Tanya: Different each time I visited. For the most part, I didn't have to wait very long.

JM: Were the guards accommodating?
Tanya: Never talked to a guard, only talked to a person in an information booth at the vistors center. The people I dealt with there were helpful. Just be polite. I witnessed other people checking in who did not get a lot of help because of their attitudes.

JM: What was the visiting environment like?
Tanya: There is a lobby with a information booth. You check in there. There might be a line. Visitation is through video only. It is not very private. It's video screens with a stool in front lined up next to and across from each other. You pick up the phone, the video starts. The person you are visiting will talk to you from video screen on their pod, no privacy for them either. Other inmates can see you, you can see people on the pods and there are people within earshot of for both the vistor and the inmate.

JM: How long was your visit? Did the guards ever allow you to take extra time?
Tanya: Paying attention to my P's and Q's got me 15 extra mins of visitation time each time I visited, even though I was only supposed to get the 15 extra (because I came from out of State) the first time I visited.

JM: What was the parking situation like?
Tanya: Never had a problem with parking. The lot is not large, but there were never all that many people there when I went. I would suggest going at the earliest time during the day as that seemed to be when there were the least amount of people there to visit and the time when you can get seated furthest away from others. Again, be polite. It goes a long way with the attendants at the check-in.

JM: What advice would you offer to somebody who is going to visit an inmate in this jail?
Tanya: Again, be polite to the people checking you in. They deal with upset and angry people all day. Say please, say thank you, they do have the power to make your visit a little better or a little worse.
