To send commissary money to an inmate in Escambia County Correctional Facility follow these steps:
For all information on how to Send Money to an inmate's account check out our full money and commissary guide for Escambia County Correctional Facility.
Because Escambia County and Florida can change their bail bond procedures, it is always best to call either the Escambia County Correctional Facility at 850-436-9830, or the court in the jurisdiction (i.e. Municipal Court, District Court, etc.) where the offender was charged, and do this right after an arrestee has been booked.
Ask the staff at the Escambia County Correctional Facility or the Escambia County Court Clerk these specific questions:
If you feel the bail is too high and you wish to get it reduced, contact a lawyer or the defendant's public defender and get them to look into what they can do to get a bail reduction. The sooner you get working on this the quicker you will get your loved one released.
This entire process will go smoother and faster with a criminal attorney or bail agent handling it for you.
