Eglin and Ivan
I’ve been getting a lot of hits to my website lately with one variation or another of the following key words: Hurricane Ivan Eglin Federal Prison Camp.
If you haven’t heard from your inmate, chances are that he was not returned to the facility after the evacuation. There was some damage to the roofs of the Prison Camp.
Now, we know the BOP makes no efforts to contact the inmates’ families and inform them of their loved ones’ whereabouts. But I believe that this is further compounded by the fact that the inmates’ accounts have not been transferred to their new locations, and therefore they have no way of paying for phone calls to tell their loved ones where they are.
According to Michael, about one-third of the inmates were returned and the remainder are being distributed among other camps, like Yazoo in Mississippi and Talladega in Alabama. Your best chance to find your loved one, if you haven't yet heard from them is to go to the inmate locator at the BOP here: Inmate Locator.
I hope this helps.
