Well-behaved detainees are allowed to have noncontact visits with friends and family members in small cubicles for two hours daily and on weekends. Visitors must talk with prisoners through telephone speakers and view them through walls of glass. When reporters toured the visitors center Thursday, Robert A. Amico turned from his conversation with an unidentified female and stared. Reporters were barred from talking with or photographing the faces of detainees. In the kitchen down the corridor from the visitors center, employees and inmates worked Thursday on meals for the 420 men now at Batavia.
Nothing is left to chance.
