Of course, once you are incarcerated, your only thought is when and how to get out. After booking, your bail amount is set using the bail schedule or the magistrate will decide it. If you don’t get a bail set this might mean that you will either be released, or you must remain in jail until your trial.

If you are released you are required to promise to show up for court, and until that date you will not be permitted to leave the area.

Usually, an inmate can earn an early release in exchange for good behavior if they don’t break the rules and don’t cause any problems while in jail.

If you do exhibit good behavior and the jail believes you can be trusted, you may be granted work release. You will have to stay the jail at the end of the day after work, or you might be allowed to move into a halfway house when you are not working.

Your bail is the amount of money that you will be required to pay in order to be released from jail pending trial. Your bail amount is dictated by what crime you are charged with and how serious it is. You will need to pay 10 percent of the total amount set in order to get discharged from jail. If you don’t go to your court date, that person won’t get their money back.

In order to find out how much someone’s bail is, you have to call the jail or the county courthouse. If know the pertinent information, including name, address and date of birth, they’ll let you know what their bail is set at. Also, you can see the bail amount on the Warrick County Security Center website.

Needing to bail someone out of jail is never a fun thing, but usually, its simple to do if you have the money. To start with, you need to know if it is a “Cash Bond Only” situation. If this is the case, you won’t be able to get a bondsman. Bail can only be paid by cash – they can’t accept a personal check. As soon as you’ve paid the bail bond, the prisoner will be released. If this person doesn’t violate any of the terms of their release, you will get this money back.

If bail is set too high, or you just can’t afford it, you should look into the services of a bail bondsman. They generally charge you a fee of 10 to 15 percent of the bail amount, and in most cases charge a minimum fee of $100. The amount you pay to the bondsman is non-refundable and is typically cash only. If the bail has been set really high, the bail bondsman will usually require that they use your personal assets as collateral for the bond in addition to whatever their charges are.

Life In Jail / What Its Like

Daily Life

Everyone knows that being incarcerated in the Warrick County jail is quite unpleasant, you will soon settle into the daily routine there. You will get an alarm to wake up at 6:00AM, and next you’ll have roll call. Next, you will eat breakfast. After breakfast, participate in the work program that you’ve been assigned to. This could be working in the kitchen, laundry, or some sort of manufacturing job. While this may seem tedious, it may help you when you leave jail, as you are gaining experience in a certain field of work. Other inmates go to school, while some take part in mandated treatment programs. After lunch, there will be another roll call, then back to work. Your evening will be spent either in your cell or a common room. During this time dinner is served and you will be expected to take a shower. After another roll call, it’s lights out. Even though you will be confined to your cell, there may be enough light to read or write letters. Then again, most inmates welcome lights out, and try to get as much sleep as they can.

Most people are frightened at the idea of jail because they don’t know what to expect. If you have spent any time in Warrick County Security Center, your experiences would be welcomed, if it can help another person to deal with it.

Dress Code

When incarcerated, all inmates are expected to wear the Warrick County Security Center uniform. This is normally a jumpsuit or scrubs. Of note to anyone visiting an inmate – you must be properly dressed. Any clothing considered inappropriate will not be permitted.

How To Send Money to an Inmate

You will have your own ‘bank account’ while in jail. This money is used to purchase items from the Commissary. Family and friends can deposit money into this account for you, and any money you earn while in prison will also be deposited into your account. Outside money can be paid in to your account via a money order, cash or check. If someone sends a check or money order, make sure that they write your inmate ID on it. The maximum amount you are allowed in your account is $290 per month.

The process for sending money to Warrick County Security Center inmates might change, so you should visit the official website before you send any money.


Commissary

The commissary is the jail store. You can purchase a number of things here, such as toiletries, snacks and writing supplies. Bear in mind that you will probably want to use the commissary daily, and any infractions will get that privilege taken away from you.

Inmate Medications

If you are on any type of prescription medication, you will be allowed to continue taking it while in jail. When you are first processed, you will be asked what medication you take. You will then be referred to the jail nurse or doctor who will be in charge of monitoring your health and prescribing your medication.

Meals

You will get three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. As expected, they are very basic, but healthy. A typical breakfast might be cereal, toast, coffee and fruit. Lunch might be spaghetti, salad, bread and milk. Dinner could be chicken casserole, rice, vegetables, dessert and milk. Contrary to popular belief, prison food has greatly improved over the years, and you might find that it’s not much different from what you would eat at home.

Pods / The Yard

The jail is designed in a ‘pod’ layout, with self-contained housing arranged around an outdoor yard. Each pod has a central control station and a common room, and the inmates take turns in using the yard. The jail is designed this way to keep certain inmates together, and others away from the general population.

Gangs

As with life in general, gangs are a part of prison life. Obviously it is best to avoid becoming a part of this environment as it will only lead to trouble. When you first enter prison, you might find yourself being ‘primed’ to join a gang, or worse, you might get their attention in a negative way. The best thing to do is keep your head down and don’t get involved.
