Interviews with custodies shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Manual of Policy and Procedures.
It is the policy of the Department to provide the most expedient method of communications between persons in custody of the Department and their attorneys or other persons attempting to secure their release.
Such communications are privileged and shall be subject to only the minimal restrictions required to maintain adequate security. Legal requirements shall be met when an attorney or bondsman requests an interview; however, officer safety and custody security shall not be compromised. Custodies are transported to court lockups for court appearances only. Any removal order for interview purposes by attorney's, probation officers, investigating officers etc. will not be accepted. All such interviews shall be done at the custodial facility where the inmate is housed.
