Digital Mail System

Your letters are sent to Securus, where they are scanned and delivered to the inmate electronically. This change was made to reduce contraband entering the facility.
To send digital mail, address your letter with the inmate's name and ID number, care of Securus Digital Mail Center-Clinton, OH. Include your own full name and address on the envelope.
Legal mail and softback books sent directly from a distributor can still go straight to the jail. Send those to the inmate's name and ID number at Clinton County Adult Detention Center, 1645 Davids Drive, Wilmington, OH 45177.
