Final Roll Call 4153. STLCO 10-42 10/13 @ 1519
I used to write to an inmate some time ago, and until my first letter she didn't know who I was...how would they know if my return address was legit or not? Aside from asking him? And don't fuckers like him get all sorts of mail from dumb bitches across the country who want to jump on his 15 minutes of fame?
So what else should I do?
Yes, of course inmates get letters all the time from strangers, that isn't what I said. I'm also sure he's a happy guy at mail call.
What I said was the fake address would be the red flag. It is automatically suspicious because if the sender doesn't use a real address, the letter most likely contains something that person doesn't want to be traceable back to them (and I mean drugs, or coded messages from friends or gang members, not just hate mail).
As far as them knowing it was fake...it's very simple to locate any address these days.
That's when they would ask him if he knows this person or was expecting that letter. I would imagine it would then be a higher up's call on whether or not to deliver it to the inmate. That's why I said it was 'likely' to not get to him.
It's just about security.
As far as what you should do? I don't really know. I wish I could tell you. You can always try a fake one. Or just use valid information.
