Choose the record path based on the question you need answered:
- For someone in the county jail, start with jail inmate records, VINELink, or the detention center phone line.
- For booking photos, review jail roster mugshots and request unavailable photos from the sheriff under the Texas Public Information Act.
- For charges filed after booking, use court records after a jail arrest, the District Clerk, the County Clerk when applicable, or the court research portal.
- For a facility contact, use the Winkler County Detention Center page listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate locator rather than the county jail.
- For a federal prisoner or immigration detainee, use the federal BOP locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
