How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Rutherford County Detention Center offers Securus video visitation daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Schedule at least 24 hours ahead. The free video terminal in the Magistrates Lobby costs nothing for you or the incarcerated person. Remote visits through Securus require separate registration and payment via their Video Connect platform. Clergy visits aren't walk-in—schedule through Detention Center Chaplain Pastor Jerome Wilkerson. Confirm current visitation rules and visitor approval requirements before finalizing plans.
