How to find an inmate
Lajas has no county jail or sheriff. People arrested by the Puerto Rico Police Bureau or Lajas municipal police who are not released are sent to a facility run by the Puerto Rico Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR). To find someone, call DCR at (787) 273-6464 with the person's full name and date of birth, or check dcr.pr.gov. DCR also holds people sentenced to prison in Puerto Rico.
Visitation
Visits take place at the DCR institution where the person is housed, not in Lajas. Visitors usually must register in advance and bring valid photo ID. Contact DCR or the specific institution to confirm eligibility, schedules, and dress and conduct rules before you go.
Bail and bond
Bail (fianza) is set by a judge of the Puerto Rico Court of First Instance, usually at the hearing held after arrest. The court or the arresting agency can explain how to pay, including cash deposit or a licensed bail bondsman. Confirm the amount and accepted payment methods with the court that handled the case.
Mail and money
Mail and deposits go to the DCR institution that holds the person, so first confirm the facility and the person's inmate number with DCR. Rules on mail content and on deposit methods vary by institution. Call DCR or the facility for current instructions before sending anything.
