After an arrest, you may not know which jail the person was taken to or whether bond has been set.
Here are three steps to help you get started.
Find out where the arrest happened
Start with the town or county where the person was arrested. If you know which police department or law enforcement agency made the arrest, that can also help.
Confirm where the person is being held
Check the county's official inmate search, if available, or contact the appropriate jail or arresting agency. The person may be held in another location, so confirm where they are before traveling.
Check whether bond has been set
If bond information is available, write down the amount and type of bond. If the information isn't available yet, it may still be pending. This does not necessarily mean the person has been denied release.
Start with the person's full name, date of birth if known, and where the arrest happened. A booking number or bond information can also be helpful.
You don't need every detail before calling.
Why Does the County Matter?
Each county has its own detention facilities and procedures for booking and release. Knowing where someone is being held helps you find the right information and understand what may happen next.
A judge or magistrate decides whether someone can be released before trial and what conditions must be met. A bail bond agent does not make those decisions.
If a bail bond can be used, Amistad can explain the cost, paperwork, and requirements before you decide how to proceed.
After a bond is posted, the jail handles the release process. Processing times vary, and an exact release time cannot be guaranteed.

You don't need to understand the entire bail process before asking for help.
A bail bond is one way to meet certain financial requirements set by the court so an eligible person can be released while their case continues.
These guides explain the process in more detail.
