The Sheriff's 2024 mail procedures send personal letters to a scanning center, not to Bandera:

Bandera County Mail Rules

  • Nothing bigger than a letter-size page.
  • Bandera County's limit is 5 scanned pages per envelope.
  • Fronts only: writing on a reverse side gets the item returned.
  • No photos: one photo sends back the whole letter.
  • The Longview scanner rejects publications of every kind, from paperbacks to newspapers and bulk advertising.

Pages are scanned and shown to the inmate on the kiosk in the cell.
