Use the route below that matches the type of information you need.

  • For a person held in the county jail, start with jail inmate records and the official Kaufman County roster.
  • For booking-photo questions, use the jail roster mugshots page and the sheriff open-records request channel.
  • For charges filed after booking, check court records after a jail arrest and the Kaufman County court portal or clerk process.
  • For facility details, use the Kaufman County Detention Center page linked in the footer.
  • For a sentenced Texas prisoner, search the Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate locator rather than the county jail roster.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator, because those systems are separate from Kaufman County jail records.
