Charles B. Webster Detention

Charles B. Webster Detention uses two-way, real-time video visitation—no in-person visits. Every visit must be scheduled and approved before you can connect. Register and book through InmateSales or call the facility's customer service line. The Visitor Center can take up to 72 business hours to approve registrations, so don't wait until the last minute. Video visits run Monday–Friday in morning and afternoon windows. You can schedule from the day before up to one week in advance, and inmates get one visit per week. Show up 15 minutes early with a valid government-issued photo ID. Only one visitor is allowed at a time. Skip suggestive clothing, leave your cell phone behind, and don't bring food or drinks. Rule violations can cancel your visit on the spot—and suspensions get longer with each offense.

Charles B. Webster Detention contracts with Combined Public Communications for inmate phone service. Calls cost $0.16 per minute plus applicable taxes—roughly $2.40 plus tax for a 15-minute call. To keep someone connected, add money to their phone account through InmateSales.com, the InmateSales mobile app, or by calling (702) 829-3001. Blue kiosks in the lobby and visitation center also accept in-person deposits. One thing to know: inmates in Disciplinary Segregation can't make general phone calls. Calls and messages may be monitored, and some services require you to set up and verify a vendor account beforehand.

Mail at Charles B. Webster Detention goes to different addresses depending on the type. Non-legal mail from friends and family must go to the facility's designated PO Box in Kentucky—include the inmate's full name and inmate ID on every letter so it routes correctly. Attorneys should send legal or privileged correspondence to Richmond County Jail at 1941 Phinizy Rd, Augusta, GA 30906. For enclosures, keep it simple: photos are the only permitted insert, up to 10 per package on photo paper. Don't send stamps, blank envelopes, stationery, cash, or checks. Expect incoming non-privileged mail to be inspected. Double-check the address and recipient details to avoid delays.

For bonding someone out, you have three options: a professional bonding company, a property bond, or a cash bond. Bonding companies typically charge a 12–15% nonrefundable fee. Property bonds require at least one year of ownership, the property must be in Richmond County, and 40% of the assessed value must cover the bond amount. Cash bonds require a valid state ID and full payment in cash or cashier's check (no change given). A $20 Sheriff's Bonding Fee applies to property or cash bonds.
