While licensed for 96 inmates, the Cleburne County Jail is often forced to make room for many more, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails turn over at least 40% of their population monthly, another 30% every 90 days, and another 20% every six months. Approximately 8-9% stay incarcerated between six and twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges like rape or murder, and because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in Cleburne County remain in custody at the Cleburne County facility much longer.

Cleburne County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain roughly 1,920 offenders each year.
