Inmates at the Iowa City jail place outgoing calls; families can't call in to an inmate. Collect and prepaid family accounts are common in Iowa jails; ask the Johnson County jailers which ones reach your number before you pay for one. The jail gives a new arrestee a call during booking, according to the listing. Expect any Capitol Street call except one with a lawyer to be recorded.
