Inmates in the state of Tennessee can have visits. At the county jails it is usually once a week. However, if they get write ups or have discipline issues those visits can be suspended as part of their punishment. Some jails do not allow children under the age of 18 to visit. At most jails you must be put on the inmates visitation list by the inmate in order to go visit them. The visits are usually for one hour. The inmates can get mail from anyone tho---that is their right.

To rehabilitate the inmates into productive members of society, but that seems to have failed.
Not true. Look up bobbarker.com It's a guy named Robert Barker Sr. who started it.
Prisons are where felony offenders go to serve their sentences consisting of at least one year. Local jails are where misdemeanor offenders are housed. HOWEVER - in some cases - when jails are overcrowded, misdemeanor inmates may be 'farmed out' to prisons who have more room to house the inmates.
Some California county jails provide booking photos of their inmates, such as Shasta and Tehama Counties. Many also provide detailed inmate information.
Most do not. Most have lock ups (holding cells) for inmates awaiting hearings, while the actual jail is located nearby.
Get the ID by doing an inmate search using the inmates full committed name. The returned search results will give the inmates ID or booking number. Good place to start your search is through this directory of prisons and jails. http://www.konmart.com
Normally, county jails do not have that type of information on their website. This is because most inmates in the county jail are pretrial inmates. The only way to find out what date an inmate will be released from the county jail is to call the County jail and find out.
It depends on the jail's policies. In some jails, inmates may be required to cut their hair for safety reasons, while in others, it may not be mandatory.
I do not believe that formal "Work Release programs" are administered by prisons (felons). Work release programs are administered by jails for lower level offense inmates (misdemeanants).
