About the Danville City Jail & Annex
This maximum security facility functions in addition to the Adult Detention Center. It is located on the first floor of the courthouse, which houses the jail as well. There is a capacity of approximately 213 inmates at any time, and the annex is located at the Adult Detention Center which functions as a work facility. Programs are available at the city jai that will offer support and skills to any inmate who accesses them. This includes NA and AA, substance abuse programs, GED classes, religious services, and mental health counselling. There is also an opportunity to join a work program that will assist in the kitchen, laundry, or janitorial services. Working in this program not only provides activities to do during the day but can also improve employable skills for their release. Outside work is also available for the upkeep of playgrounds and ball fields around the city. Inmates are also encouraged to maintain their outside relationships and create support systems outside of the jail that will help with reintegration at the end of their sentence. On Tuesdays and Fridays, the friend and family may drop off approved items between the hours of 7am and 4:30pm, which can provide court clothing for inmates who have a court date that week, and they will in turn be exchanged for the day clothes that are present in the property of the inmate. Inmates will have access to a phone and can make outgoing phone calls, allowing them to communicate any items or funds they may need, as well as to arrange in person visits. For an in person visit they must first be approved by the facility, and those who have been recently released will not be permitted to attend visits. The visits day and time are arranged by the first letter of the last name of the inmate. Female inmates will have weekend visits on either Saturday or Sunday, with the exact time being determined by their last name but occurring between 1:30pm and 3:30pm. Male inmates are arranged in the same manner but have visits that begin at 9am and end at 3:30pm on a week day.

Recent Bookings & Arrests

How do I find out if someone has been arrested and booked into the Danville City Jail & Annex?

To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Danville City Jail & Annex, call the jail’s booking line at 434-799-5130.

There may be an automated method of looking them up by their name over the phone, or you may be directed to speak to someone at the jail. Sometimes the jail staff may ask you the offender’s date of birth to ensure privacy of the offender’s status.

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.

Danville City Jail & Annex Booking Roster

What happens during booking in Danville City?

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 Danville City 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.

What is the booking process like at the Danville City Jail & Annex?

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 Danville City and other Virginia 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.

What kind of questions are asked during booking?

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.

What happens to an offender’s personal property during booking?

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.

What happens after booking?

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 Danville City Jail & Annex 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.

How long does the Danville City Jail & Annex Booking process take?

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.
