Once you become an "inmate", life as a human being stops. A inmate is no longer a person, but property of the state to which he or she is in. Your life is now a fact of public record. The following links are for you to use for research on your pen pal, to locate someone you know that you might have lost contact with, for useful parole information, or for whatever reason. Some of the states allow you access to their database, some do not. If they don't, they will give you directions on where to contact for this information. Friends on the Inside inc. does not check to see if all the information the inmate has given us is true or correct. If you want to know, contact the state in which they are incarcerated.
