How to Mail a Letter to Someone at Yellowstone County Detention Facility (what to send, where, and what happens next)
Mail at Yellowstone County Detention Facility runs on two separate tracks. Getting this right determines whether your letter reaches the person you're writing to—or goes nowhere. Personal mail isn't accepted directly at the jail. Instead, a third-party vendor scans it and delivers it to the inmate electronically. Legal mail works differently: send it directly to the facility's street address, not the scanning address. This setup exists because of contraband concerns. Think of "personal letters" and "legal mail" as two completely different processes with different addresses and rules. Send personal mail to the jail? It won't follow the right system. Send legal mail through the scanning address? It won't be treated as legal mail.
