A No-contact or Restraining order exists between the two parties. Once a visitor has arrived in the visitation check-in office, they are not allowed to leave the room for any reason, or the visit is canceled. No unattended children will be allowed in the building at any time. Every visitor is subject to a pat-down search, including children, before they enter the visiting area. All visitors will have their mouth checked after going through the metal detector.
All searches are for contraband and weapons.
Any visitor refusing a search will be refused a visit. During K-9 searches of lockers, if a dog indicates on a locker, the visitor who owns the property contained therein will be subject to a thorough outside body search. Any smell of contraband detected by an Officer and the K-9 will result in that visit being canceled. Visitors who leave during a K-9 search will loose future visitation privileges. Visitors may take nothing into the visitation room, other than their visitation pass and identification.
