Normal visitation days for inmates at Wakulla Correctional Institution are Saturdays and Sundays. They are allowed an initial hug, and then must sit across a table from their loved one without making further contact. But for a few hours Thursday morning, inmate Stevie Taylor was surrounded by 13 of his closest family members. They played board games and moved freely around the room, Taylor's eight granddaughters and three grandsons delighting in playing Monopoly with their grandfather. Children of Inmates Visits, Inc., in partnership with the Department of Corrections as well as Living Stones International, a children and family outreach organization, brought the Children of Inmates Bonding Visits to Wakulla Correctional three years ago.

His current release date is listed as June of 2020, according to the Department of Corrections' website. Read More. |
