My son Phillip M.Askew,is an inmate at WRSP.I have not heard from him in a month.Because,he has some health issues,I am concerned that he may be ill. I also would like to know if I will be contacted if he were ill.M phone #’s are 7576377232(home)and 7575937901(cell).Would it be possible for his counselor to contact and inform me of his well-being? I appreciate any contact from your facility. Thanks Jennifer Askew

I am trying to reach some one to find out why inmates are only allowed to call on week ends. I understood that when he was in seg. but he is in general population now. I am busy on week ends and can’t sit at home waiting off him to call. It would be nice if he could call in the evenigs when he knows I am most likely to be home.

Hi Johanna, since the prison administration is not helping you, we recommend that you contact the prison chaplain for
assistance. Often, the prison chaplkain can make the difference.
