JPay at Taft

I guess since Taft is not run by the Bureau of Prisons (it’s outsourced), they don’t use CorrLinks for email. Instead they use JPay. This means if you want to send me email while I’m at boy’s camp, you have to do it through JPay…

Taft is in California, and my inmate ID I think *should* be 13411-111.

I poked around and looked at CorrLinks since that’s what you get to use for “email” in federal prison. From a computer guy’s standpoint, it’s not super impressive… but I suppose it gets the job done.

While *I’m* not going to do it (I’m sure it’s probably some federal crime somehow), but it wouldn’t be terribly difficult to use it as a ghetto proxy to be able to read things like websites from prison (at least the text part of it).

That being said, if you are bored and want to send me a pseudo-email via CorrLinks while I’m in the clink and want to chat it up, my prisoner number is 13411-111.
