Who Can Visit at Morrow County Jail: Probation, Criminal Records, and Intoxication Rules

A criminal record doesn't automatically disqualify you from visiting. The jail's policy states that people with criminal records "shall not be excluded from visiting" - so a past conviction alone shouldn't get you denied.

Who Can Visit at Morrow County Jail: Probation, Criminal Records, and Intoxication Rules

Probation and parole work differently. If you're currently under supervision, you need written permission from your Probation/Parole Officer before visiting. Get that approval ahead of time - without it, staff will deny your visit even if everything else checks out.

  • Written permission from your Probation/Parole Officer
  • A copy you can hand over at check-in (keep an extra copy for yourself)
  • Valid photo ID that matches the name on your permission

Reminder: If you’re on probation or parole, don’t assume you can “just try” to visit - Morrow County requires written permission from your supervising officer.

Show up under the influence and you won't get in. Morrow County's policy is straightforward: intoxicated visitors - whether from drugs or alcohol - are turned away. If there's any chance you could seem impaired, reschedule.

Tip: Even if you feel “fine,” staff can deny a visit based on intoxication - go sober and avoid anything that could be mistaken for impairment.
