Communication is important, the prison offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.
While incarcerated, reading is often the best use of time. Please note that books and magazines, puzzles, and word searches ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.
The establishment of the TSCI was initiated through legislation (LB 150) in 1997. Following the legislative mandate, a suitable site for the institution was chosen, located approximately two miles north of Tecumseh. Construction commenced swiftly, with ground being broken in December of the same year, marking the beginning of the facility's development. By late spring 2000, the recruitment and hiring of initial staff for the institution had begun, laying the groundwork for its operational readiness.
In December 2001, TSCI opened its doors to inmates, marking the culmination of several years of planning and construction. From its inception, TSCI has prioritized comprehensive healthcare services for its population. This commitment is reflected in its facilities, which include a ten-bed skilled nursing facility, clinic exam rooms, on-site x-ray capabilities, a medical laboratory, optometry services, and dental care provisions. These resources are integral in meeting the diverse healthcare needs of the inmate population and ensuring their well-being.
As a correctional institution, TSCI primarily serves as a maximum/medium custody facility catering to adult male inmates. Within its premises, TSCI houses a 194-bed restrictive housing unit, which plays a crucial role in managing inmates who require heightened supervision or disciplinary measures. Notably, TSCI also serves as a facility for inmates sentenced to the death penalty, although it's essential to clarify that the actual administration of the death penalty occurs at the Nebraska State Penitentiary, highlighting the distinct roles and functions of correctional facilities within the state's justice system.
Overall, TSCI represents a significant component of Nebraska's correctional infrastructure, offering essential services, security, and programming to its inmate population while upholding standards of safety, rehabilitation, and justice.
TSCI maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.
If unable to locate the desired information through free resources, users may opt to use the Arrest Record Search, which requires payment. While this option incurs a small fee, it provides access to the most up-to-date data available.
