Regarding visitation at the facility, there are certain measures in place to ensure the safety of jail personnel and inmates. These include searching any items brought into the security perimeter for contraband, conducting thorough searches for contraband on inmates who leave and reenter the facility, conducting regular and irregular searches of the entire facility area for contraband (with records kept), and timing searches so that they cannot be anticipated by the inmates.
In terms of inmate observation, when inmates are outside the security perimeter in court holding cells, they should be observed by a peace officer or a jailer licensed by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement or a bailiff. The sheriff/operator is responsible for implementing a documented procedure for face-to-face observation of all inmates at least once every 30 minutes. There should be at least one jailer, licensed peace officer, or bailiff provided on each floor where 10 or more inmates are detained, with a minimum of one staff member per 48 inmates or each increment thereof for direct inmate supervision. In areas where required, there should be a two-way voice communication capability between inmates and jailers, licensed peace officers, or bailiffs at all times. Closed circuit television may be used as an additional tool but cannot replace the required personal observation.
To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Uvalde County Jail, call the jail’s booking line at 830-278-4111.

Keep in mind that after an arrest, the information on an offender may not be publicly available for several hours.
If you don’t want to check up on an offender by calling the jail, you can also try looking up people recently booked online.
Uvalde County Jail Booking Roster
After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Uvalde County for booking.
Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.
Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Uvalde County and other Texas and USA jurisdictions.
If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.
It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.
The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.
During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.
Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.
At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.
If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Uvalde County Jail will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.
Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.
Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.
If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.
