Hood County Jail Roster
The official current-custody path for Hood County inmate records is the county's bond and inmate listing, also reached through the Hood County Sheriff's Office Bail Bonds and Fines page. It is a free public listing with no login requirement. The listing is not built as a normal search form, so there is no visible search box, reset button, dropdown, or filter panel. It displays a table of current entries, and the practical way to search a name is to use the browser's find command on the page.
The roster is a current bond and inmate listing, not a permanent archive of every booking. The research did not identify a posted refresh schedule or a stated rule for how long released people remain visible. That means the online Hood County jail roster is best treated as a live custody starting point. A person arrested by the Hood County Sheriff's Office or Granbury Police Department usually routes to Hood County Jail first, but a sentenced state prisoner is searched through TDCJ, a federal prisoner through BOP or USMS channels, and an immigration detainee through ICE ODLS or VINELink.
The Hood County bond roster page shows the roster in a plain table before a user opens a profile.
The table layout matters because users should expect to browse or browser-find a name rather than submit a form inside the page.
Use Hood County Inmate Records
The current roster workflow is simple, but it requires care because similar names may appear and the first table view is short. Begin with the official listing, check the table fields, and then open the row only when the name and booking date make sense. The profile page has more detail about the arrest and charges. If the listing does not load, or if the person was recently arrested, the jail phone line is the next best live channel.
- Open the Hood County bond and inmate listing from the county webapps domain or from the sheriff's Bail Bonds and Fines page.
- Use the browser find tool to search the last name, then compare first name, race, sex, and book date in the visible table.
- Click the matching row to open the booking profile, which uses a booking.asp page path for the detailed record.
- Review the booking date, arrest information, charge table, warrant field, class, and bond amounts before acting on the record.
- Call Hood County Jail if the name is missing, the arrest is very recent, or a release or transfer may have occurred.
Do not assume a missing name means the person was never arrested. The roster is a current-custody tool, and it may not show people who have bonded out, been released, been transferred, or moved to state or federal custody.
Hood County Roster Fields
The first Hood County inmate records table has only four visible columns. It does not ask the user to choose a facility because Hood County Jail is the only officially located county detention facility identified in the research. There is no documented county app for the roster. The county web listing, the jail line, in-person contact, and public information request channels are the documented ways to work from a current roster entry toward more complete jail records.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Table text | No | Use browser find to locate a last name in the current listing. |
| Race | Table text | No | Displayed as an identifying field, not as a search filter. |
| Sex | Table text | No | Displayed as an identifying field, not as a search filter. |
| Book Date | Date field | No | Helps separate people with similar names and shows when the jail booking was entered. |
Because the listing has no search form, spelling matters less than scanning the table carefully. A partial last name in the browser's find box can catch entries where a first name, middle initial, or suffix differs from what a caller expects.
Hood County Inmate Profile
Opening a roster row leads to a detailed Hood County Sheriff Bond Report profile. The profile is broader than the four-column table and can include a booking photo, identity fields, physical descriptors, arrest data, booking times, and an offense table. The offense table uses the label "Statue" for the offense field, which appears to be the county page's spelling. It also shows warrant, class, required amount, and total amount fields.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking photo | A current booking image when the profile includes one. |
| Name and person ID | The name tied to the jail profile and the county person identifier. |
| Address | An address field shown on the public profile when present. |
| Physical descriptors | Hair, eye, height, ethnicity, and weight fields. |
| Arrest details | Arrest date, arrest time, and arrest location. |
| Booking details | Booking date and booking time after jail intake. |
| Offenses and bond | Offense, warrant, class, required amount, and total amount fields. |
The observed profile did not show a full date of birth, Social Security number, phone number, housing unit, court date, or magistrate name. Court dates and case filings may appear later through Hood County court records rather than through the jail profile. Booking photos are covered separately on the Hood County jail mugshots page.
Hood County Record Channels
Hood County inmate records should be checked through the channel that matches the custody stage. A local arrest moves through jail intake and booking. After fingerprints, property intake, medical review, classification, bond processing, magistration, and housing, the roster profile may become useful. Magistration is the first appearance before a magistrate. Hood County has a public magistration livestream, but the sheriff's page states it starts when magistrations are in session and may pause between proceedings.
| Need | Best Channel | Use When |
|---|---|---|
| Current county custody | Hood County bond and inmate listing | A person may be in Hood County Jail. |
| Recent arrest or status check | Hood County Jail, 817-579-3333 | The roster is unclear, missing, or likely not refreshed yet. |
| Sheriff public information request | PIALaw@hoodcounty.texas.gov | A jail or law-enforcement record must be requested under the PIA process. |
| Civil or other county records | PIA@hoodcounty.texas.gov | The request belongs to Hood County outside the sheriff's office. |
| Court case after arrest | Hood County Tyler public access | A charge has moved into the court record system. |
| Custody notification | Texas VINELink | A user wants custody alerts or another status check. |
For sheriff PIA requests, Hood County lists the Law Enforcement Center address as Hood County Law Enforcement Center, PIA Request, 400 Deputy Larry Miller Dr, Granbury, TX 76048. The sheriff's main phone is 817-579-3316. For other county public information requests, Hood County lists Hood County Annex I, 1410 W. Pearl St., Granbury, TX, phone 817-408-3450, and fax 817-408-3452.
County State Federal Inmates
The Hood County jail roster covers local jail custody. It should not be used as a statewide prison locator or as a federal detainee search. Sentenced state prisoners from Hood County move into the Texas Department of Criminal Justice system after transfer. Federal prisoners are searched through the Bureau of Prisons locator when they are in BOP custody, while some federal arrest or pretrial situations may involve the U.S. Marshals Service. Immigration custody is separate again.
| Custody Type | Where to Look | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Pretrial or local sentence | Hood County Jail roster and jail line | Held at the local county jail before trial, while posting bond, or on a short local sentence. |
| Sentenced Texas custody | TDCJ inmate search | Search by TDCJ number, SID, last name, first name, gender, or race. |
| Federal custody | BOP inmate locator | Used for federal inmates in BOP custody, not ordinary county bookings. |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | Used for ICE detainee searches when the person is in immigration custody. |
Hood County has no officially located TDCJ, BOP, ICE, regional, or work-release detention facility in the county research. That makes the local roster narrower but easier to place: current local arrests route to Hood County Jail, while post-sentence and nonlocal custody must be checked in the state or federal systems.
Hood County Jail Contact

Hood County Booking Process
A Hood County arrest starts a custody process before a roster profile has much value. Intake normally includes identifying the person, taking a booking photo, fingerprinting, logging property, screening for medical needs, classifying the person for safe housing, and reviewing bond or hold information. Classification means jail staff decide where a person can be housed based on risk, health, sex, age, charge type, and other operational facts.
Bond and magistration are separate from the public roster. A bond is the legal promise or money condition tied to release while a case is pending. A PR bond, short for personal recognizance bond, can release a person based on a written promise rather than a cash or surety bond when a court allows it. Hood County states that bonds can be posted 24/7, but they must be posted by a Hood County bondsman. Fines may also be paid 24/7 under the sheriff's posted instructions.
The Hood County Sheriff's Office Bail Bonds and Fines page explains the bond and fine payment route alongside the embedded bond listing.
That source is important because the roster and the payment instructions sit close together, but a public roster entry is not the same thing as permission to post any form of payment.
Hood County Jail Visits
Visitation is handled through the Hood County GTL VisitMe portal at hoodcountytx.gtlvisitme.com/app. The posted schedule is split by male and female inmates. A user should confirm custody and schedule requirements before travel because a release, court movement, medical restriction, discipline status, or housing change can affect access.
| Inmate Group | Day | Hours | System |
|---|---|---|---|
| Male inmates | Wednesday | 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm | GTL VisitMe |
| Male inmates | Saturday | 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm | GTL VisitMe |
| Female inmates | Tuesday | 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm | GTL VisitMe |
| Female inmates | Sunday | 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm | GTL VisitMe |
Mail rules were not captured in the provided research. Phone and tablet services are referenced through the ViaPath Phone/Tablet Services page, but specific rates were not captured, so callers should verify current costs with the vendor or jail before funding an account.
