Although the Muscle Shoals Police City Jail is licensed for 20 inmates, it frequently holds more than that, particularly on weekends. City and county jails typically turn over at least 40% of their population every month, another 30% every 90 days, and another 20% every six months, with roughly 8-9% staying six to twelve months. Inmates who stay longer than a year are usually charged with serious crimes like murder or rape. Those cases take a long time to prepare for trial, so offenders arrested in Colbert County for them stay in the Colbert County facility much longer.

Colbert County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 2,120 offenders every year.

How do you post bail in Colbert County?

3. They may post a bail or bond for release. To find out the exact bail amount, call 256-814-6060.

Bail payments can be handled in various ways.

• Cash bonds are paid in full, normally at the jail's bonding window or with the clerk of court, by cash, cashier's check or money order, and card payments are often possible through a kiosk in the lobby or an online vendor for a convenience fee; have the inmate's full name and booking number ready, and reach the jail at 256-814-6060.
• Licensed bail bond agents in Colbert County can facilitate payment.
