This has to be the 3rd site Ive looked at and every one of them never tells, who to make the money order out to. can anyone answer this?
Get your money order from the post office so u have plenty of room 2 write everything u need 2 write. And fill it out like this:
1st line: Inmate name - Inmate number
2nd line: K.C.I.W. and P.O. Box number
3rd line: PeeWee Valley, KY zip code
I hope this helps. It gets confusing, and if u don't do it right, they will probably send it back. Some of their rules r a little extreme. Holler back if u need 2 know anything else. I was locked up there for about 7 months back in 2004-2005.
Yes! I already figured it out, thx for the responce.
