How to Text an Inmate at the Jefferson County Correctional Facility

Texting a Fairfield inmate works only once that person holds the jail-issued Reliance iPod, which the sheriff's jail page says comes after seeing a judge. To message someone, open a Reliance Telephone account at reliancetelephone.com, add funds and select the Jefferson County jail. A newly booked person may not be reachable until the iPod is issued.
