The State Bureau of Prisons should have a locater service. Call their number (located in the governemnt listings in the phone book), and with the name of the inmate, they should be able to tell you where he is housed. This will only work if the inmate has been remanded to THEIR custody. They will not be able to help you if the inmate is jailed in a local facility on a local charge. ________________________________________________________________________ The State of NY has an online "Inmate Look-Up Service".
