How to find an inmate
Windham County has no jail, so pretrial and sentenced people from the county appear in the Connecticut Department of Correction inmate locator. Search the locator by full name or inmate number to find the DOC facility holding the person, which may be Brooklyn Correctional Institution, Corrigan-Radgowski Correctional Center, or another state facility. If the search shows no result, call Brooklyn Correctional Institution or the arresting police department with the person's full name and date of birth.
Visitation
Visits at Brooklyn Correctional Institution and other DOC facilities are controlled by the Connecticut Department of Correction, and visitors generally must be approved and schedule visits in advance. Visiting schedules, ID requirements, and dress rules differ by facility and can change. Confirm with the specific facility or the DOC website before traveling to Brooklyn or Uncasville.
Bail and bond
Bail for Windham County arrests is set by police, a bail commissioner, or a judge at the Superior Court in Danielson. Bond can be posted at the police department before transfer, or at the DOC facility or courthouse once the person is in state custody. Call the holding facility or the court clerk to confirm the amount, accepted payment types, and where to post bond.
Mail and money
Mail to someone at Brooklyn Correctional Institution or another DOC facility must include the person's full name and DOC inmate number and is screened under DOC rules. Money is deposited into the person's DOC trust account through methods the Department of Correction approves. Confirm the current mailing address, deposit options, and limits on the DOC website or by calling the facility.
