Bail Bond Information in Brownsville, TX
Cameron County's seat and largest city, on the Rio Grande across from Matamoros.
Downtown Brownsville and county offices
Brownsville is Cameron County's seat in the Rio Grande Valley. Downtown Brownsville is home to county offices and the Harrison Street detention facilities, but a downtown arrest does not tell you where someone is currently held. Read the case paperwork and confirm the correct office or facility before traveling.
Brownsville or Olmito: confirm the facility
Cameron County operates more than one detention facility. A person arrested in the Brownsville area may be held at a Harrison Street facility or at Carrizales-Rucker in Olmito, and transfers can occur. Use the official inmate search and Sheriff's Office contacts rather than assuming the nearest jail is the right one.
County bail and other holds
Brownsville's border location makes it important to distinguish a Texas criminal case from a federal or immigration matter. A county bond does not resolve a separate federal or immigration hold. Ask a licensed attorney about the particular case and verify custody status with the responsible authority.
