JUDICIAL WARRANTS

  • A judicial warrant is a warrant that is signed by a judge and issued by a federal and state court.

  • Judicial warrants will have a specific time period and address to be searched.

  • A judicial warrant will specifically name the person they are looking for.

  • The judicial warrant will have a signature from a judge. Make sure that it says “Judge” below the signature. The top of the paper will also have the word “court” on it.

  • If you are shown a judicial warrant, you only have to comply with what is written in the signed warrant. You do not have to comply with everything else the officers may ask of you.

ICE WARRANT

  • An ICE Warrant will be signed by a DHS or ICE official, and DOES NOT COMPLY WITH YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

  • An ICE Warrant might have “Alien” or “Removal” in the title.

  • Tip #1: If ICE is already inside with an ICE Warrant, you have the right to ask them to leave and tell them you do not consent to them being there.

  • Tip #2: If you are shown an ICE Warrant, tell the officer that you do not consent. You do not have to open the door for them or let them into the building.

Inmate accounts

There are three ways that friends or family can deposit money to an inmate’s account:

  • Go to the Minnehaha County Jail and use the kiosk in the lobby

  • Deposit cash by talking to the jail staff at the front desk

The jail cannot accept cashier’s checks, money orders, payroll checks or personal checks. When money has been deposited, inmates can use the kiosk to view their account history, order items, or purchase phone minutes.

Inmate phone use

Each housing unit has a phone available for inmates to use if they have money in their account. Those phone calls may be monitored by jail staff.
