Key facts about the Cochise County Jail - Sierra Vista:

• It is licensed for 30 inmates but often has to make room for more, especially on weekends.
• Most city and county jails in Arizona turn over at least 40% of their inmates monthly.
• Another 30% turn over every 90 days, and another 20% every six months.
• About 8-9% stay six to twelve months.
• Those held longer than a year usually face serious charges like rape or murder.

Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in Cochise County remain in custody at one of the Cochise County facilities much longer.

When someone is arrested in Arizona, the court rules start from the presumption that they will be released on their own recognizance. Judges set bail only if that isn’t enough to ensure the person comes back to court or to protect public safety. Many people arrested in Arizona are released without paying anything.

Cochise County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 8,040 offenders each year.

What is the process to pay bail for someone detained in Cochise County?

After an individual is apprehended and taken to Cochise County Jail - Sierra Vista in Sierra Vista for booking, their release options vary based on the situation:

1. They might be released without bail, on the condition they appear in court on a scheduled date.
2. They may be detained until their court appearance.
3. They may be eligible for release after posting a bail or bond.  Call 520-803-3850 for the exact bail amount.

There are different ways to settle an individual's bail or bond.

• To post a cash bond, pay the full amount at the jail bonding window or the clerk's office by cash, cashier's check or money order; many facilities also accept cards at a lobby kiosk or through an online bond vendor for a fee, and you will need the inmate's full name and booking number (jail phone: 520-803-3850).
• A licensed bail bondsman in Cochise County can assist with payment.
• Real property such as land or a house is accepted as collateral by many courts, provided the owner proves clear title and equity worth at least the bond, frequently twice the bond, with a deed and a current tax or appraisal value; the court that set bail signs off on it.
