What You Can't Bring and How to Dress for a Visit at Kenosha Pretrial Facility

Bring a valid, government-issued photo ID. Kenosha Pretrial Facility requires every adult visitor to show ID at check-in - no exceptions. Forget it, and you'll be turned away.

Female visitors age 12 and older must wear shorts that fully cover the buttocks and crotch - both standing and sitting. Aim for mid-thigh length or longer to stay compliant. Sheer or see-through clothing is prohibited, even if layered. Stick with opaque fabrics.

• ✓ Wear shoes the entire time you’re visiting.
• ✓ If you wear shorts, make sure they cover the buttocks and crotch when standing and sitting, and are no higher than mid-thigh.
• ✓ Avoid sheer (see-through) clothing.

Male visitors age 12 and older must wear a shirt with sleeves the entire visit. Muscle shirts, bare-midriff styles, and sleeveless tops aren't allowed. Keep your shoes on too.

Prohibited Items

• ✓ Food or drinks of any kind
• ✓ Any electronic device other than the single device you’re using to complete the visit

All visitors go through security screening - either at entry or anytime during the visit. If you're bringing a child for an on-site video visit, the facility allows only one adult and one minor per scheduled session. The minor must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, so plan your group before you arrive.

Inappropriate behavior has real consequences. Kenosha Pretrial Facility can suspend or revoke visiting privileges for both the visitor and the incarcerated person. A first violation costs the visitor three months of visiting privileges. Further violations can lead to indefinite revocation. The inmate faces separate consequences too - each incident can trigger a two-week restriction from visits.
