Topic Overviews

Mail & Letters

Richmond Corrections Facility uses TextBehind to manage incoming postal mail rather than processing everything onsite. The vendor screens and scans mail at an offsite facility to catch contraband before it reaches inmates. Like many North Carolina jails, non-legal letters get scanned and delivered digitally—originals aren't handed over. Packages and publications follow different rules and may need to go directly to the facility or through approved vendors. One thing to know: the vendor only holds original letters briefly. If you want yours back, request it quickly. To avoid delays, follow the vendor's required address format exactly and include the inmate's ID number and the facility's full name.

Inmate Lookup

Looking for someone connected to Richmond Corrections Facility? Start with the NC DOC Offender Search—North Carolina's public lookup tool for people in the state corrections system. You can search by name or offender number, then narrow results using the Offender Status filter (all, active inmate, active probationer/parolee, or inactive). Additional filters help cut down on wrong matches: gender, race/ethnic group, birth date, and age range. Name searches often support partial or "sounds like" matching, though you may need at least one letter in the first-name field for results to appear. Results typically show identifiers (PID/JID), demographics, birth date, charges, and custody status. Update timing can vary.
