Until recently, we have allowed the public to search for inmates via the County's website.  The search would display all jailings for the individual.  We have been made aware, and confirmed with the Texas Attorney General's Office, that this was not in compliance with current law.  Therefore, we have removed the inmate search function.  Until further notice, you can inquire about inmates by calling the booking desk at (512) 549-5073.  We apologize for the inconvenience.  

Law enforcement records and court records can still be searched HERE.  

By Phone: 

Phones are available in each of the dayrooms for inmates to utilize. A 15-minute time limit is enforced to allow all inmates access to the the telephones. Phone calls can be made by funding phone accounts through NCIC and be set up at NCIC.com or by calling 1-800-943-2189.
