Inmate Search

Are you trying to send the inmate a letter, but you are trying to locate their inmate identification number? If so, you do not have to sit on the phone and be on hold to get this vital piece of information.

All you will need to do is head on over to the Federal Bureau of Prisons website and find their inmate list. The inmate list will give you all the information that you are looking for about the inmate.
