The Tarrant County Jail is situated in Ft Worth, Texas. The Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office is the law enforcement agency that is responsible for the operation of the Tarrant County Jail.

The Tarrant County Jail is a medium-detention center. This facility houses both adult female and adult male inmates. Juvenile inmates are not permitted nor housed in this facility.

Not all inmates in this facility are residents of Tarrant County. The Tarrant County Jail also accepts inmates from other law enforcement agencies from the local, state, and even federal level. Most of the time, these inmates come from an overcrowded facility or they have a court appearance in the area. The Tarrant County Jail typically takes all of the Ft Worth Police Departments arrestees as they do not have their own longer-term lockup facility.

The facility accepts inmates every day. The facility is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Some inmates will be released from the facility either because the facility is overcrowded, they have finished their sentence, they are going on probation, or they posted bail.

Most inmates in the facility are either waiting for their trial to start, going through their trial, or waiting for their sentencing. All inmates in the facility will always have three meals a day and access to the showers for their personal hygiene care.

Inmates who gain the trust of the correctional officers will have the opportunity to earn a little bit of money by working as laundry personnel, a cook, orderly, or in the commissary. This can also shave a few days off their sentence for good behavior.
