NJDOC @ C.E.C (Delaney Hall) Reviews

I called twice today spoke with two different female operators employees. I asked to leave a message for an inmate being released since he had no way to contact me. The first lady told me to contact the Essex County jail..the jail said no because I was not asking for information and I am the emergency contact. I called back the second female actually caught an attitude and said I called the day before I advised her that was not me. She almost yelled and said they don't speak with the residences or give messages. I advised her I am the emergency contact and she continued with the attitude. I'm sure my family member has a counselor. I could have spoken with that counselor and they could have given him a message. Now my family member has no way of knowing my phone broke and he will be released in 10 degree weather. Not being able to contact your family in case of emergency should be unacceptable especially among release and to have someone give you attitude just shows the type of people that work there. Disgusting unprofessional behavior.

Although visits are 3 hours it takes them like 15 mins for inmates to come down but it's worth it ... Great parking and an quick search

My husband died 5 days after being released from Delaney Hall. The COD was an anureism ruptured in his brain that was directly caused by blunt force trauma to the back of the head. He sustained this injury while in the competent care of the Delaney Hall staff. Probably staff that inflicted the injury in the first place

I paid the $10,500 bail they wrote that I only paid $2,500 . I didn't realize this until later no one will talk to me or check the camera's. Which show me paying thos amount, an older black woman counted it however the receipt is signed by someone who's wasn't there. While there today another person was also complaining of the same thing . I'm sure this has happened often. If anyone is interested in a class action lawsuit please contact me, I have a lawyer .

no hot water for showers ever. spaghetti was ok. they only served it once though.

They give you very badly treated inside they are very rasistas

This is an establishment used for an alternative to incarceration,x "residents" experience home like comforts and receive visitors regularly.

Contact visit staff was nice I'll take it over county anytime

Very bad rehabilitation center. There's more drugs in there than on the street. It's located right across the street from a garbage dump. The smell in the air, especially in the summer, is absolutely rancid. Mostly prisoners are the population of this rehabilitation center. Would not recommend going there on your own to kick a drug habit.

Highly rated re-entry house....
Simply the best.....

Staff was not helpful. The rules and regulations made no sense. But it was still better to visit loved ones here compared to Essex County Jail. Parking was easy to get.
