Broward County Jail

Visitor Policy

Interview with James and Charles


JM: How often could you receive visitors?
James: Once a week.
Charles: Twice a week.

JM: Was the check-in process lengthy for those who came to see you?
James: Very. Sometimes my relatives waited 2 hours.
Charles: Very long.

JM: What was the visiting environment like?
James: Filthy at Main, and N. Broward. Better at Conte and Sherriffs N.
Charles: Like being locked up with the person but with a window between you. They can't leave viso and you can't leave it either.

No tank tops/sleeveless shirts. I've seen people be turned away even though they had a sweater over one. Shorts/skirts must be below the knee. A t-shirt and pants is a safe bet.
