Tom Green County Inmate Population Records
The clearest official snapshot of the Tom Green County inmate population comes from the Texas Commission on Jail Standards population reports. TCJS reports county jail counts on the first day of the month from data submitted by the jail. That source is different from the public roster count, which can change as people are booked, released, transferred, or held for another agency. The sheriff roster helps with current custody. TCJS helps with capacity, trend, and population context.
Most local custody starts at the Tom Green County Detention Center. The jail population includes adult pretrial detainees, sentenced county inmates, bench-warrant holds, parole violators, ICE holds, and other categories shown in TCJS reporting. The official research also identifies two Concho Valley Community Supervision and Corrections Department residential facilities in San Angelo. Those CSCD facilities are court-ordered treatment settings, not public county jail roster facilities.
Tom Green County Inmate Population Statistics
TCJS listed the Tom Green County jail with 552 rated beds and 446 total inmates on June 1, 2026. The same June 2026 incarceration-rate workbook listed an average daily population field of 416 and a countywide population of 120,103 for rate calculations. These figures are official reported figures, not a full annual intake count. The sheriff current roster showed 470 people when inspected on June 30, 2026, which shows why a roster count and a first-of-month TCJS report should not be treated as the same number.
| Measure | Figure | Source / Date |
|---|---|---|
| Rated jail capacity | 552 beds | TCJS Current Population Report, Tom Green row, June 1, 2026 |
| Total jail population | 446 | TCJS Current Population Report, June 1, 2026 |
| Percent of capacity | 80.8% | TCJS capacity calculation from June 1, 2026 data |
| ADP field for rate report | 416 | TCJS Incarceration Rate workbook, June 1, 2026 |
| Roster count at inspection | 470 | Sheriff current roster title, inspected June 30, 2026 |
The TCJS population report page is the source to use for capacity and trend context. The sheriff current inmate roster is the source to use for a name lookup.
The TCJS population report screenshot in the project manifest shows the state population-report page where current population and incarceration-rate workbooks are posted.
That state workbook context matters because Tom Green County jail counts are submitted through the statewide jail-standards system rather than calculated from the roster page alone.
Tom Green County Jail Population Trends
Recent TCJS first-of-month totals stayed below the 552-bed capacity. From October 2025 through June 2026, the reported jail total ranged from 424 to 493, or about 76.8% to 89.3% of listed capacity. The highest extracted recent month was March 2026. The lowest extracted month was October 2025. No official source in the research file published annual bookings or average length of stay, so those fields should not be inferred.
| Date | TCJS Total Jail Population | Capacity Share | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-06-01 | 446 | 80.8% | Current population report row |
| 2026-05-01 | 481 | 87.1% | Under listed capacity |
| 2026-04-01 | 481 | 87.1% | Same total as May |
| 2026-03-01 | 493 | 89.3% | Highest recent extracted month |
| 2026-02-01 | 471 | 85.3% | Under listed capacity |
| 2026-01-01 | 490 | 88.8% | Under listed capacity |
| 2025-10-01 | 424 | 76.8% | Lowest recent extracted month |
Who Is in Tom Green County Jail
The June 1, 2026 TCJS row gives a more detailed view of the jail population than the public roster. It showed local male and female pretrial misdemeanants, local pretrial felons, convicted misdemeanants, parole violators, people with new charges while on parole, convicted felons sentenced to county jail time, people sentenced to TDCJ ID, SAFPF, or ISF, and a federal inmate field. The sheriff public pages do not separately explain a federal contract, so that TCJS federal field should be cited with care.
- Pretrial felony population: TCJS listed 140 local male pretrial felons and 29 local female pretrial felons.
- Class A/B misdemeanor pretrial population: TCJS listed 26 local males and 10 local females.
- County jail sentences: TCJS listed 61 local male convicted felons and 13 local female convicted felons sentenced to county jail time.
- State transfer categories: TCJS listed 38 local males and 15 local females sentenced to TDCJ ID, SAFPF, or ISF categories.
- Federal field: TCJS listed 43 male federal inmates in the June row fields inspected.
Laws Behind Tom Green County Jail Data
Texas public-record law and jail-standards law explain why Tom Green County inmate population data can be found through both local and state channels. The roster is a sheriff public-information tool. The population workbooks are TCJS jail-standards records. Court records after booking move through clerks and prosecutors under separate criminal procedure rules.
Key statutes:
Texas Government Code Chapter 552 is the Texas Public Information Act, used for requesting public records from governmental bodies, subject to exceptions.
Texas Government Code Chapter 511 creates and empowers the Texas Commission on Jail Standards to regulate and inspect county jails.
Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 17 governs bail, which affects whether a booked person stays in the jail population.
Texas Family Code Chapter 58 protects juvenile justice information, which is not handled like adult jail roster data.
Tom Green County Detention Center Role
The Tom Green County Detention Center is the main local jail at 4382 N US Highway 277 in San Angelo. It is operated by the Tom Green County Sheriff's Office under Sheriff J. Nick Hanna. The jail page, roster, bond window, scanned-mail rules, NCIC visitation, commissary instructions, and inmate phone information all point to this facility. The sheriff site also lists sheriff administration at 222 W. Harris with weekday office hours and a non-emergency line.
Local roster records show SO numbers, booking numbers, booking dates, bonds, ages, charges, arresting agency, race, gender, and booking photos. They do not publish every detail a court or jail file may contain. Housing unit, projected release date, judge, warrant number, and some physical descriptors were not shown on the inspected profile.
Search Tom Green County Inmates
The official Tom Green County inmate roster landing page separates current inmates from the 48-hour release list. The current roster is free, public, and no login was found in the research. It can be searched by name and sorted by name or date. A profile warning says charges and bail may change after court appearances, so anyone posting bond should call the detention center at 325-659-6597 for current bail, charges, and case numbers.
- Open the sheriff inmate roster landing page.
- Choose Current Inmates for present custody or 48 Hour Release for recent releases.
- Use Search By Name when the list is long.
- Sort by Name or Date if needed.
- Open View Profile to see SO number, booking number, booking time, charges, bond, and photo.
- Call the jail before posting bond or relying on a charge or case number.
The manifest screenshot from the current inmate roster shows the public roster cards, name search, sorting controls, mugshot thumbnails, booking data, bond, age, and charges.
Those roster fields are useful for quick lookup, but official confirmation still belongs with the detention center staff or the court clerk that controls the filed case.
Tom Green County Roster Fields
The sheriff roster has specific controls and fields that are useful when searching the Tom Green County inmate population. The system does not publish wildcard rules, minimum character rules, or an update interval in the research. It does offer the paths and controls below.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search By Name | Text | Unspecified | Filters by inmate name. |
| Show All | Button or link | No | Clears the search and returns the selected roster view. |
| Name | Sort link | No | Sorts or navigates by name. |
| Date | Sort link | No | Sorts or navigates by booking or release date. |
| Current | Filter link | No | Shows current custody. |
| Released | Filter link | No | Shows the release view, including the 48-hour release list. |
Tom Green County Released Inmates
The sheriff roster landing page includes a 48-hour release path. That short release window is useful when a person was just discharged from the Tom Green County Detention Center, but it is not a full archive of old bookings. If the record or booking photo is no longer online, the research-supported fallback is a Texas Public Information Act request to the sheriff or county with the person's name, SO number, booking number, booking date, and the exact record requested.
State-sentenced prisoners are different. After sentencing and transfer, a Tom Green defendant may leave the county roster and move into the Texas Department of Criminal Justice system. The county jail roster should not be used as a state prison locator.
County Jail vs State Prison Search
Custody lookups work best when the system matches the custody type. The Tom Green County Detention Center roster is for local county jail custody and recent releases. TDCJ covers sentenced prisoners. BOP covers federal sentenced inmates from 1982 to present. ICE ODLS covers immigration detainees. VINELink Texas is a notification channel, not a full court-record search.
| System | Who It Covers | Where to Look |
|---|---|---|
| County jail roster | Current Tom Green County Detention Center inmates and 48-hour releases | Sheriff inmate roster |
| TDCJ | Sentenced Texas prisoners after state transfer | TDCJ inmate search |
| BOP | Federal inmates from 1982 to present | BOP inmate locator |
| ICE | Immigration detainees | ICE Online Detainee Locator System |
| VINELink | Custody status and victim notification | Texas VINELink |
Charges After Tom Green County Booking
A jail booking record is not the final court record. After arrest, law enforcement may present the investigation to the District Attorney's Office for screening. The DA page says prosecutors review evidence and probable cause before felony complaints move forward. Felony cases can then go to a grand jury for an indictment. Misdemeanor records are routed through the County Clerk criminal department and county-court system.
Use the county's Odyssey Public Access portal for criminal case records and court calendar searches. Booking photos and custody facts belong to the jail record. Filed charges, settings, dismissals, pleas, and indictments belong to the court record.
Tom Green County Detention Facilities
The facility map has one primary county jail and two community corrections facilities. The primary jail is first because it controls the public jail roster. The CSCD facilities are not searched through the sheriff jail roster unless a person is separately booked into the detention center.
- Tom Green County Detention Center holds adult county jail detainees, county sentences, local holds, parole categories, ICE holds, and other TCJS-reported local classifications.
- Roy K. Robb Men's Community Corrections Facility is a Concho Valley CSCD residential treatment facility for male offenders placed by courts.
- Female Community Corrections Facility is a Concho Valley CSCD residential treatment facility for female offenders placed by courts.
Tom Green County Sheriff App
The official Tom Green County TX Sheriff app adds a mobile path for public information. The sheriff's December 20, 2024 release says the free app includes Contact Sheriff's Office, Crime Map, Departments and Services, Inmate Roster, Most Wanted, Press Releases, Sex Offenders Link, Sheriff's Messages, Social Media Links, Special Alerts, Submit a Crime Tip, and Warrants. Push notification categories include Inmate Roster updates.
The app is available through the Apple App Store and Google Play. The research did not confirm an app-only roster field, so the app should be treated as another official access channel, with push alerts as the added mobile feature.
Tom Green County Custody Terms
