Mabel Basset Corrections Center, OK

Mabel Basset Corrections Center limits each inmate's approved visitor list to 20 people—children under 18 don't count toward that cap. During any visit, up to five approved visitors can be with the inmate at once. If the visitation area hits capacity, staff may end visits early, though you're guaranteed at least two hours before a capacity-related cutoff. New arrivals can get one temporary visit within their first 30 days while applications process. If you're 18 or older, submit a Visitor Application Form (paper forms go to the ODOC Visitation Unit at P.O. Box 11400, Oklahoma City, OK 73136-0400) and pass a background check—expect up to eight weeks for approval. Bringing a minor? Have birth certificates or guardianship paperwork ready. Once they turn 18, they'll need to apply on their own.

Routine incoming paper mail for Mabel Bassett Corrections Center goes through a vendor address posted on the ODOC website—not directly to the facility. Check the agency site for the current address before mailing anything. For outgoing mail from an inmate, the return-address area should include the inmate's full name, ODOC number, and the facility's complete address. This ensures proper identification and return if needed. ODOC prohibits sexually explicit and obscene correspondence or publications—the policy spells out definitions and examples, and all mail gets screened accordingly. Many Oklahoma facilities use vendors to scan and deliver mail electronically. Legal and privileged mail follows separate procedures, so review the accepted-mail rules before sending.

Money you send to someone at Mabel Basset Corrections Center goes into their inmate trust (commissary) account. They can use it for commissary purchases, phone or video calls, and certain fees. The facility caps accounts at $99,999,999.99—deposits that would exceed this limit won't go through. If a payment gets charged back as unauthorized, the inmate's account will be restricted until Access Corrections is reimbursed, plus a $25 reactivation fee applies. To repay a chargeback, mail a money order to Access Corrections with the inmate's name, ODOC number, and facility name. Phone payments aren't accepted for repayments.

To reach Mabel Basset Corrections Center, start with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections central address and public phone number for general inquiries. For case-specific questions—records, visitation, inmate status—check the facility's official page or the county sheriff's site to find the right office. When calling about someone in custody, have their full name, date of birth, and any inmate or booking identifiers handy. This speeds things up considerably. Requesting formal records? Review the requirements first—these requests often need a specific form and may involve a fee or self-addressed stamped envelope. If you're still stuck, try the state DOC central office or the county court clerk.
