Visitation
Visiting at David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center starts with the DLM Visitor's Request Form. Once submitted, it triggers a background check—expect approval or denial within 10 days. Be accurate: leaving out or falsifying information leads to disapproval and a 120-day wait before you can reapply. If you're 18 or older, bring photo ID (state driver's license, government, school, or military ID). The name on your ID may need to match your registered visitor information. Security screening uses hand-held and stationary scanners. If you can't pass screening or wear an ankle monitor, you'll be denied entry. Electronic devices, including cell phones, are prohibited during visits. Bringing them into secure areas without authorization can be a felony under Oklahoma law (limited attorney exceptions apply under strict terms). On-site non-contact visits are limited to approved immediate-family categories and require an application. New detainees may not be available for visits during the first seven days while checks are processed.
