What You Can and Can't Send in the Mail to Cass County Jail
Want your mail to actually reach someone at Cass County Jail? Keep it simple. The jail only accepts letters and photos. Anything outside those rules gets rejected or destroyed.
Cass County Jail only allows letters and photos through the mail. Packages, books, magazines, cards with glitter or attachments? They won't make it through. Stick to written correspondence and approved pictures to avoid delays.
Every piece of mail needs a complete return address. Include your first and last name, full street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Miss any part of that, and your letter or photos could be rejected before they ever reach the inmate.
The jail bans any mail containing pornographic material or content that could create sexual harassment issues. This type of mail gets destroyed, not returned. Staff also reject anything with bio-hazardous indicators: perfume, lipstick marks, or unusual odors. If it smells like cologne or has lipstick on the envelope, it's not getting through.
Warning: Pornographic or sexually suggestive content will be destroyed. Mail with perfume, lipstick, or other bio-hazard indicators won't be accepted.
Photos are allowed, but they follow the same content rules as letters. Nothing pornographic or sexually suggestive. Keep your pictures simple and appropriate. Family photos, landscapes, pets? Those are safe bets.
