About the Searcy County Jail

Searcy County is one of Arkansas’s smallest counties, and its jail is small too, with room for about 30 people. The Searcy County Sheriff’s Office runs it from 301 Factory Road in Marshall and answers its phone 24 hours a day at (870) 448-2340. The jail holds people arrested in the county on misdemeanor and felony charges while their cases are pending, as well as people serving short local sentences.

The sheriff’s office puts its jail roster on the RPS/Inmate app for phones and tablets, which you can download free from the App Store or Google Play. You can also call the number above. Felony cases can be followed on Search ARCourts. For a misdemeanor case, call Searcy County District Court at (870) 448-5411, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Arkansas VINE, at 1-800-510-0415, will notify you when a person is released or transferred.

Someone who is arrested and kept in jail should see a judge without unnecessary delay, generally within 48 hours (Arkansas Rule of Criminal Procedure 8.1). The Arkansas Constitution makes everyone bailable before conviction except in capital cases where the proof is evident or the presumption great. Rules 9.1–9.2 tell judges to consider release on recognizance or with conditions before setting money bail. A bondsman’s fee is set by law at 10% of the bond, rounded up to the nearest $5, plus small state fees, and it is due before release. Call the jail to confirm a bond amount and how it can be paid.

Write to someone at the jail using the sheriff’s mailing address:

Visiting times, phone accounts and money deposits change from time to time, so call the jail to confirm before you drive or send money. If you’re concerned about an outstanding warrant, check with the sheriff’s office or a lawyer before turning yourself in.

No public bus serves the jail; most visitors drive. Along U.S. 65 in Marshall, you can get gas at the Shell at 915 US-65 and the Exxon at 804 US-65. Daisy Queen at 614 US-65 and Sonic Drive-In at 919 US-65 are easy stops for food.
