If you have questions about a specific institution, it's best to search PrisonTalk's site for a thread on that exact facility-- the chances of someone browsing this thread knowing of the same place you're looking for are very slim.

But as to mail, I think it's pretty common across the nation that prison mail is SLOOOOOOOOW. I live 90 minutes from my friend drive-wise, but it's from one to three weeks mail-wise. I kid you not. Be patient! Also, make sure you verify that you have her address exactly correct.

I deal with MCIW in Jessup as well. I live 10 minutes away, and I had the same problem until I called Lois Bailey, The Secretary for the Division of Correction's secretary 410-339-5005 and filed a complaint. The Warden doesn't like to hear from Headquarters. I suggest you do the same. The mail is delivered about 8p.m. Monday thru friday.
