Quote History Quoted:
AS someone with 17 years working behind the wire - leave it ALL at home. Get Home Bags are escape paraphernalia, firearms, ammo, knives of any kind, cameras, nothing but your basic emergency tools for your vehicle. Sorry, but that's the rules here at this state prison. If you are caught with prohibited items, it does NOT mean arrest, unless you are a complete jerk, but you will never be allowed visitation while he is in that Dept custody.
Having said that, two options - one, contact the prison and see if they offer storage lockers at Traffic Control. Some do, where civilians may store a sidearm while inside and retrieve on the way out. Rare, but it does happen. Second, is there a re storage locker place in the town where the prison is located that will do a short term small rental, like a safety deposit box?
There IS a third option that some of our visitors use - they come in with two vehicles and one waits off property with presumably prohibited items inside, while the others go visit, and some park off property and bum a ride in/out. View Quote I've thought about starting a business in Florence where I'd get a big panel van and outfit it with as many little storage boxes as I could put in it, and then going from facility to facility at shift chages and visitation turn outs and renting the boxes to visitors and employees who need to store stuff. I wonder if I'd even break even.
