I know of several people attacked there, didn't even fight back, yet was thrown in isolation anyway. In isolation you can't get any of the guards to help you. They just turn the buzzer off and walk out. They leave you without the medication you need to survive. There are a few good COs, but most treat the inmates like animals. Family can't get any answers when calling, they get hung up on or ignored. Someone needs to do something.

Questions & Answers

How do I order hot meals

Joshua Pickett | Oct 19, 2017
Carrie Powers | Oct 18, 2020

Im not sure im trying to find out also. But you can go to careacell.jointaccounts.com and order alot of different care packages and the good thing about this is with kenton county detention they take half of any money put on inmates commissary but if you order through here they get more for the money because its already pre selected different items and different prices you just pay for each package you buy and they cant take half the money then. So its better than putting it on someones books.

Dont...they automatically take half for their 20 daily housing fees... I call that stealing, as the state (taxes) pays them, too. Use caracell...they take a shipping fee of 3 each package and the inmate doesn't have his money taken

Does your facility have contact visits

Paije Porter | Oct 19, 2017
Betty Abdon | Oct 18, 2021

They have visitation. But not contact visits. Its all through a camera on a screen. Inmates sit in their dorms while the visitor sits out in the lobby on a screen.

How come nobody answers the phone to schedule a visit? I've been calling for two weeks

Matt Egan | Oct 19, 2017
Jennifer Meek Smith | Oct 18, 2021

Because they DO NOT care!
