In an effort to keep contraband out of the Creek County Jail Facility, the Creek County Sheriff's Office has implemented a system for sending documents, photos and mail to inmates that will replace physical mail coming into the facility. 

 

If you wish to send documents, photos and mail to inmates, we have a quicker and more efficient method using our Inmate Messaging system. Simply go to www.NCIC.com and set up an account.  You can then easily send messages to an inmate for instant delivery.  You can also take a picture of any documents and attach to these messages.  Messages are only $0.25 per message and Picture Messages / Documents are only $0.35 per picture.  This is much cheaper than postage, envelopes, and the time it takes to mail a letter, and the inmate will receive the message and/or picture instantly. There will be no limits on how many messages and photos can be sent to the inmates.

 

 

Beginning on February 1, 2024, all physical inmate mail, EXCEPT for legal and medical mail, must be mailed to the following address utilizing existing Creek County Sheriff's Office Jail mail rules:

 

Inmate Name

SO#

Creek County Jail

PO BOX 591

ALL legal and medical mail must be mailed to the Creek County Jail

"WARNING"

Any mail that is sent to PO Box 591, Longview, Texas 75606 for processing will NOT be returned or released.  Once the mail is processed and received electronically by the inmate it will be destroyed.  This includes pictures or anything else mailed to the processing facility.  By sending the mail to PO Box 591, Longview, Texas 75606, you agree to the items being destroyed and understand that anything you mail to PO Box 591, Longview, Texas 75606 will not be returned or reimbursed for.  No legal or medical mail will be accepted.

• All mail that is scanned into the system will be scanned front side only. Do NOT write on the back of pages. Any mail with writing on the back will be returned to sender. 
• Inmates may receive a maximum of 1 photo per mailing. If more than 1 photo is mailed, the entire letter and all its contents will all be returned to sender and nothing will be scanned in or delivered to the inmate.
• No legal or medical mail will be accepted. Legal and medical mail must be sent to the facility where the inmate is housed following the Creek County Sheriff's Office Mail Guidelines.

There will be no exceptions for receiving mail that does follow the above guidelines.

 

 

Respectfully,
