Licensed to hold 250 inmates at any given time, the Walker County Jail often has to make room for more offenders, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails, at least 40% of inmates turn over within a month, another 30% within 90 days, and another 20% within six months. Roughly 8-9% stay incarcerated six to twelve months. Those who stay 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 Walker County remain in custody at the Walker County facility much longer.

Walker County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 5,200 offenders every year.

How to post bail for someone arrested in Walker County

When an individual is arrested and booked at Walker County Jail in Jasper, the outcomes include:

1. Release without bail, under the condition they appear for their court date.
2. Remain in custody until the court appearance.
3. Post a bail or bond for release. Contact 205-302-6464 for specific bail amounts.

Bail payments can be made in different ways.

• Cash bonds must be paid in full, either at the jail's bonding window or with the clerk of court, and are accepted as cash, cashier's check or money order; many jails also process cards through a lobby kiosk or online vendor for a fee, so bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and phone the jail at 205-302-6464 if needed.
• You can work with a licensed bail bondsman in Walker County.
• Many courts allow a property bond, letting an owner put up land or a home after proving clear title and equity of at least the bond (often double) through a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, with approval from the court that set bail.
