STAFF FILE PHOTO/ANDY CASTILLO Published: 6/1/2021 5:05:44 PM GREENFIELD — The Franklin County House of Correction has entered its third month of in-person visits, having resumed the practice one year after the COVID-19 pandemic forced its hiatus. Sheriff Christopher Donelan explained visitations haven’t quite returned to pre-coronavirus normalcy, as people wishing to see an inmate must register online “so we don’t have too many people in here at once.” He said registered visitors enter the lobby of the medium-security facility and are escorted to one side of a wall, where they sit in something of an enclosed booth and communicate via telephone with an inmate on the other side of a pane of glass. He said this is the case for the facility’s four pods, which as of Tuesday morning contained roughly 140 inmates.
