How to find an inmate
Puerto Rico has no county jails, so people arrested in Vega Baja end up in facilities run by the Department of Correction and Rehabilitation (DCR). Call DCR headquarters in San Juan with the person's full name and date of birth to learn where they are held. DCR handles both pretrial detainees and sentenced inmates.
Visitation
Visits take place at the DCR institution where the person is housed. Visitors typically must register in advance and show valid photo ID. Confirm current visiting rules and schedules with the institution.
Bail and bond
Bail (fianza) is set by a judge of the Court of First Instance. The court and the Pretrial Services Office manage pretrial release. Contact the court on the case for instructions on posting bail.
Mail and money
Send mail to the DCR institution where the person is held, including their full name and inmate number. Money for inmate accounts goes through DCR procedures. Check current methods and limits with DCR before sending.
