Talk to an inmate on the phone: Inmates at Otero County Detention Center are not permitted to have incoming phone calls. In fact, they can not even locate phone numbers.

This means you will be responsible for the fee.

Send mail or letters: The best form of communication with an inmate is to send them a letter. Inmates look forward to getting mail daily and weekly. However, it is imperative that the correct information is written on the envelope to ensure the inmate gets what you send. Here is an example:
