Finding someone at Estrella

The MCSO inmate lookup on mcso.org confirms the facility and shows the booking number, charges, bond, and court dates — see our inmate search guide for how to read it. Facility information: (602) 876-0322.

Visits, mail, and money

Visitation runs primarily by video on MCSO’s current schedule — check mcso.org before planning a visit. Mail and commissary deposits follow current policy and require the booking number. Attorney visits are separate from regular visitation and are not limited to its hours.

Release and the case

For pretrial inmates, release runs through the court: recognizance release, bond, or supervised release, each of which can be revisited by motion as circumstances develop. Our guides to posting bond and OR release cover the mechanics. For the case itself, a criminal defense attorney can meet with her at the facility and take over the defense.
