Where to Route a Taylor County Jail Question
For a person held at the Taylor County Adult Detention Center, start with the jail or the Taylor County public-access portal. For written criminal-record requests on file with the Sheriff's Office, use the records office process.

The Sheriff's Records page says records requests must be in writing and may be submitted in person, by fax, or by U.S. Mail. A copy of the requester's photo driver's license is required before the request can be honored. The page includes both records-handling hours of 7 AM to 6 PM Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and 7 AM to 5 PM Wednesday, and a contact block showing Monday-Friday 8:00 am-5:00 pm, so confirm current counter hours before visiting.
- For current county jail lookup, use jail inmate records and the Taylor County public-access portal route.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and the written records fallback if the portal does not show a photo.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest.
- For facility logistics, use the Taylor County Adult Detention Center page.
- For a sentenced Texas prisoner, use the Texas Department of Criminal Justice offender locator rather than the Taylor County jail.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator, U.S. Marshals routing, or ICE ODLS depending on the custody type.
