Federal inmates may be processed through the US Marshalls or the Bureau of Prisons.  If you are seeking a federal inmate, then you will need to contact both of those agencies to try to find the inmate.  At the Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator, you can find any inmate incarcerated in the BOP system since 1982.  At the U.S. Marshal’s Defendants in Custody and Prisoner Management tool, you can locate inmates in the custody of the U.S. Marshal Service.

Inmate Phone Privileges:

The Mansfield Jail allows inmates to make outgoing phone calls.  Inmates cannot receive incoming phone calls and the Jail will not take messages for inmates. 

As with other aspects of inmate rules, federal inmates and non-federal inmates have different rules.  Non-federal inmates can make collect calls and are not permitted to have an inmate account for phone calls.

The Mansfield Jail uses the NCIC Inmate Phone Service.  You can contact them at 1-800-943-2189.  To add money to a federal inmate’s hone account, you must first go to ncic.com to setup a prepaid phone account for an inmate.  At that website, you will find instructions on how to set up a prepaid phone account.

In addition, there is a Kiosk machine located in the lobby area of the Mansfield Law Enforcement Center.  You can use this Kiosk to deposit phones to phone accounts.  The Kiosk is the option to choose if you need to deposit cash, but the Kiosk accepts both cash and credit cards All transactions will not be deposited into the Federal Inmate’s Account until the next regular business day.

Inmate Trust Accounts / Commissary:

Inmate trust accounts can be used for both commissary and canteen purchases and are a way for inmates to food and hygiene items that are not provided by the Mansfield Jail, during the period of their incarceration.  At the Mansfield Jail, only federal inmates are allowed to have inmate accounts.

Mansfield Jail uses the EZ Money Load system to run inmate commissary accounts.  You can deposit money into a federal inmate’s account in two ways.  First, you can use the Kiosk located in the lobby of the Mansfield Law Enforcement Center.  The kiosk accepts cash and credit card deposits.  Deposits are credited the next business day.

You can also go to www.ezmoneyload.com to deposit money into an inmate’s commissary account.

If you have any questions about the EZ Money Load system, you may contact them directly at 1-800-382-2887.

Although federal inmates are the only inmates who can have commissary and/or trust accounts at the Mansfield Jail, other inmates may also have some personal property.

Inmates who were taking prescription medication prior to incarceration can have a friend or family member bring the medication to the Mansfield Jail.  The medication will be inspected by a nurse; if approved, the medication will be distributed to the inmate by Medical Staff, according to the instructions on the prescription container.  Things that will disqualify a medication include: expired expirations, medication not in the original prescription container, or medication that does not contain the proper amount according to the information on the container.

In addition, inmates who wear prescription eye glasses may have them brought to the facility.  Once approved, these eyeglasses will be issued to the inmate who owns them.

Bail Information:

Not all inmates are eligible for bail.  You can look at an inmate’s individual record to determine whether or not the inmate is bail eligible and the amount of bail for each charge, as well as the court of jurisdiction.

You may contact the bond desk with any questions about bond.  The number to the bond desk is 817-804-5731.  The bond desk is open 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. However, the Bond Desk will only have information about bond after an inmate has been fully booked into the system.  Therefore, you may want to wait until an inmate has used his or her free phone call to make contact before calling the bond desk to ask about bond or bail information.

Not all inmates are bond-eligible.  However, even some inmates who are not eligible for bond may be released with payment of a bond.  For example, a Capias Charge indicates that a specific amount of money must be paid before the inmate can be released from custody. Inmates with Capias Charges must pay the full amount and cannot pay a bond.

Commitment orders, which commit an inmate to jail for a certain period of time, may have provisions that permit inmates to pay a fine in lieu of jail time.  In those instances, the inmate must pay the full amount, and the amount owed does not diminish as the inmate spends time in jail.

Some inmates charged with Class C Misdemeanors may be released if the agency that charged them fails to pick them up after being notified that the inmate is in custody.  The inmate is responsible for contacting the city holding the warrants to dispose of all charges.

If you need to use a bondsman, you can find authorized bail bond companies in the yellow pages under "Bail Bonds."  Bail bond companies charge a non-refundable fee for writing bail bonds.  The Mansfield Jail does not recommend particular bail bond companies.

The bond process is not instantaneous.  Inmate releases occur around the clock.  As soon as the necessary paperwork is completed, an inmate will be released.  Because this time may vary, Bond Desk personnel cannot provide exact release times.  To estimate release time, keep in mind that factors such as the day of week, time of day, and the number of other releases being processed all impact release times.

Conclusion

The Mansfield Jail is a city-level jail operated by the city of Mansfield, which is located in the Dallas- Ft. Worth greater metropolitan area.  It is a busy jail facility because it processes and holds inmates for other local jail facilities.  In addition, it holds federal inmates that are processed through the Bureau of Prisons and the U.S. Marshal service.

The treatment of inmates at the jail depends, in part, on the inmate’s designations.  Federal inmates have access to things that local inmates do not, in large part due to the fact that federal inmates are more likely to have an extended stay at the facility.  Federal inmates may have access to mail, phone accounts, and commissary accounts.
