They cannot have been found guilty or pled no contest within the past 15 years to any felony charge and they can’t have any outstanding unsatisfied judgment entered on any bail bond in any court in Missouri or the US. POST YOUR OWN 10% CASH BOND: Bonds are generally set at a specified cash amount by the court.

Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed. If the offender remains in jail for any length of time, the Greene County Youth Academy will allow a friend or family member to pick up the inmate's property if the offender gives written authorization for a named person to do so.
