About the Hickman County Jail

INTERESTING FACTS about the Hickman County Jail: This facility was built in 2006 and can house around 110 inmates.

Phone calls from an inmate at the jail may be made either via an inmate’s phone account, or through a collect call. The receiver incurs the cost of the collect calls. There are GED programs, substance abuse programs, vocational programs to learn a trade, and mental health programs available to inmates to help jump start them back into society, and statistics prove that fewer people return to jail who complete any one of these programs.

The Hickman County Jail is responsible for the housing and care of those who are accused or convicted of committing a misdemeanor or felony in Hickman County as they wait for their trial or as they serve their sentence, usually less than one year. 

It serves many law enforcement organizations including the Sheriff’s Department, local police, Immigration, and other surrounding counties as needed.

If you have questions regarding an inmate or the programs and services provided, the staff can be reached at 931-729-6143, and an online listing of all the detainees is published for your own investigation.

Upon intake, the booking process is completed, which includes a medical screening, fingerprinting and mugshots, DNA sample, along with an assessment to determine security needs, medical needs, mental health requirements, and housing assignment. 

Staff is available to transport all inmates to court dates and any medical appointments or emergency needs, as well as inspecting all mail for contraband, receiving commissary funds and other money for inmates, maintaining the safety of the community and the security of the facility, and other tasks. 

The Hickman County Jail also provides several other services to inmates including basic needs in meals, laundry, and hygiene items, and programs including AA, counseling, religious programs, education, recreation, and opportunities to grow social and life skills. 

Along with the efforts made by the staff, reduced recidivism is seen when inmates are able to stay in contact and supported by their family or friends who are not incarcerated so mail, phones, and visits are provided. 

Visits are in person, and are via video and an account is created online to book and complete visits, allowing both visitors and inmates to schedule a visit. 

Phone accounts are also registered online, and allow for inmates to make outgoing calls during the daytime and evening hours when they are not participating in a task or program.
