About InmateLink

Families should not have to figure out incarceration alone.

InmateLink helps families start an inmate search, find facility information, review plain-English guidance, and prepare for the next call.

Founder story

Why Adrian built InmateLink

Adrian English spent eight years as a corrections officer with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. That experience gave him a direct view of the distance between how the corrections system operates and what families can understand from the outside.

Families often have to navigate separate facilities, agencies, courts, providers, rules, and deadlines while under intense pressure. InmateLink was founded to make that journey less fragmented: a clearer place to begin, better-organized information, and more direct paths to appropriate help.

Adrian combines that corrections experience with a background in computer science and business, plus ecommerce, business development, and sales. He brings those disciplines together around the questions families face and the practical work required to make information easier to use.

How we work

Operating principles

Families first

Start with what a family needs to do next, especially when time and attention are limited.

Plain English

Use common words, short explanations, and direct actions instead of system language.

Source clarity

Show where information comes from and point people to the organization that controls it.

Honest limits

Say what InmateLink can help with today without implying guarantees, official authority, or live support.

Clear handoffs

Make it clear when someone is leaving InmateLink to use an agency, facility, court, or provider source.

Corrections

Make errors easy to report and correct information when better evidence becomes available.

Independent by design

What InmateLink is, and what it is not

InmateLink is an independent information and services platform. It is not a government agency, law enforcement agency, correctional facility, court, law firm, emergency service, or substitute for legal advice. Agencies, facilities, courts, and providers control their own current information, rules, decisions, and services.
