Can I sign out property from an inmate?

With approval of the on-duty supervisor, keys and money may be signed out at any hour of the day Monday through Sunday. Inmates must approve a request to sign out money to an immediate family member. The on-duty Shift Supervisor will take other subsequent requests of signing out money to a non-family member on a case-by-case basis.

A computer printed receipt shall include the amount of money to be signed out, who is receiving the money, their relationship to the inmate, and the inmate’s signature. The inmate’s signature is required to show his approval of the transaction. Inmates shall be permitted to sign out money only once per incarceration. Inmates shall not be permitted to transfer money to another inmate in the Vanderburgh County Sheriff Confinement Center.

Any general property, other than one set of clothing and a form of identification, may be signed out on Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM.

Inmates who are being transferred to the Indiana Department of Corrections will designate who will pick up their excess property at the time of their transfer. These individuals may pick up DOC property on Monday through Sunday from 8:00 PM– 4:00 PM. When excess property is released, all property is included with the exception of identification, which is transferred with the inmate to Indiana Department of Corrections.
