CMCF is located on 171 acres and includes thirteen housing units with a capacity of 3,557 beds.  Offenders sentenced to the Mississippi Department of Corrections are brought to CMCF where they are processed through the Receiving and Classification unit.   Every level of custody is represented and depending on where your inmate is designated (and a year sentence is usually minimum or low unless the inmate has violence in their history), you will relaxed visitation, not through a glass divider.
