If a person in Missouri leaves their land in a will to a prisoner in Indiana does the prisoner get the land or does the prison take the inheritance?

Generally people in jail are allowed to inherit property. If the sentence included restitution then it’s possible the state or feds could sell the property.
Good luck.
