This is a private reference site, not a Falls County government office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, schedule visitation, or retrieve an official booking record. Use the official office that holds the record for custody, bond, jail, court, or public-information requests.


Where to Start for a Falls County Record

For current local custody questions, the researched starting point is the Falls County Sheriff's Office and Falls County Jail. The official sheriff page lists Sheriff Jason Campbell and the jail/sheriff address as 2847 State Highway 6, Marlin, TX 76661, phone 254-883-1431, and fax 254-883-1434. A separate jail records-unit number and public lobby hours were not located, so call before traveling for inmate status, bond, visitation, property, mail, or records-request instructions.

  • For someone booked into the local jail, start with jail inmate records and the Sheriff Connect app linked from the official sheriff page.
  • For a booking photograph, review jail roster mugshots and ask the sheriff's office whether an existing booking photo is releasable under Texas Government Code Chapter 552, the Texas Public Information Act.
  • For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest, then check the District Clerk or County Clerk depending on the case type.
  • For facility-specific address and phone details, use the Falls County Jail, William P. Hobby Unit, and Marlin Unit pages listed in the footer.
  • For a sentenced Texas prisoner, use the TDCJ inmate search rather than the county jail.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
