Q: How do I get inmates' prison calls in Missouri?

My daddy died unexpectedly in prison and I want to get our last 2 phone calls. The warden told me I would need a court-ordered subpoena. How do I go about doing this when it's not for a case? Would I need a lawyer to file it for me? The form asks for division and case number.
