Video Visits at Larimer County Jail: How They Work, Rules, and What Can Get a Visit Canceled
Video visits are a solid way to stay connected with someone at Larimer County Jail—but the rules are strict, and visits can end fast if something crosses the line. Here's how to get set up from home, what gets monitored, and the most common reasons visits get cut short.
The process starts on the inside. At Larimer County Detention Center, the inmate has to initiate the visitation request. If you're waiting to schedule a video visit, you may need to ask your loved one to submit that request from jail before anything can move forward.
You don't need special equipment for off-site video visits - just the basics working well. The jail allows visits from almost any smartphone, or a PC with a webcam and microphone. Pick a spot with a steady internet connection and a clear camera view. You don't want to spend half your visit troubleshooting tech issues.
Assume the visit isn't private. Video visits at Larimer County Detention Center are monitored and recorded. What you say, what's in your background, and anyone who steps into frame can all affect whether the visit continues.
S4
- ✓ Displaying gang-related symbols, themes, or colors
- ✓ Vulgar language or vulgar images
- ✓ Nudity
- ✓ Sexually explicit activity
Note: If you don’t follow the video visitation rules, the jail can terminate your visitation privileges.
Even if you do everything right, video visits aren't guaranteed. Staff can deny, change, or cancel a visit at any time. And rule violations can cost you more than just one call - they can lead to losing visitation privileges entirely.
Some cancellations have nothing to do with you. If a visit conflicts with the inmate's court appearance, it won't happen. Same goes for conflicts with an inmate worker's job schedule - those visits aren't honored either, even if you were counting on that time.
