PINE BLUFF, Ark. — Visiting people held in jail in Jefferson County can now be done over the internet.
Sheriff Gerald Robinson has announced that the Jefferson County Jail and Juvenile Detention Center has launched a new inmate video visitation program.
On August 1, the new HomeWAV system was brought to the facilities to allow family members and friends to schedule and conduct video visits with jail inmates using any suitable computer connected to the Internet.
