does anyone know if you can bring disposable cameras in to visit at tucker? my daughter said she saw people taking pics at brickeys when she went to see her dad,but she dont know if they baught the cameras there or if they were allowed to bring them in with them.

Most units have photos available to be purchased (I'm not sure who gets the $ from the pictures) but there are usually inmates taking the photo and the cost is about $5.00 for two. I don't know of any unit that allows personal camera's in on visitation.

Jen Jen the only camaras I have ever seen at Tucker are the ones Pods spoke of. With the exception of the camaras they have for survilance purposes,from the ceiling.Every unit is different in so many ways, so they may have allowed them at Brickey's.Kitty

so how does one get the pic's that they take ...the 2 for 5.00 ones? that would be just as good.thanks for the info...hope you and your loved ones are all doing ok :)

At visitation there is a place set up with different backgrounds, like now I think you can do it in front of a fake fireplace with greenery around it or in front of a nice wall picture of a, let me think I have forgotten, seems like maybe a big city in the back ground and at the top it says 2006.There has been a valentine background ...with a Butt-ugly angel:) they had to paint clothes on after the first week or so...hee hee.Hunting season last fall they did camo.Anyway you get the idea:) There is an inmate named Boone who takes your money and the picture, it is usually in the corner nearest the vending machine....you'll know it when you see it:) It is done with a polaroid instant camara so you get it right then. :) kitty

can visitors take in enough money for the pictures? or do the inmates have to pay for it with their money on their books. i know some units wont let visitors bring in anything but change for the vending machines.but thanks for the info you always help alot :)

you can take in enough cash to buy the pictures, if they questions you about the money just tell them you are planning on having a picture made, they are polaroids and you get them as they are taken.
