Hi there,

So sorry I missed your message. I don't need information related to administrative lines at the jail; I'm primarily interested in any phone lines that are used by the incarcerated.

Please let me know if there's anything else with which I can help.

Best wishes,
Beryl

To Whom It May Concern:

Please find enclosed a check for $17.00 to satisfy the fees associated with the attached public records request.
