The licensed capacity of the Sevier County Jail is 140 inmates, though the jail frequently has to make room for more, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails in Arkansas see at least 40% of inmates turn over monthly, 30% more every 90 days, and 20% more every six months, while around 8-9% remain six to twelve months. Stays longer than twelve months are usually tied to serious charges such as rape or murder. Those cases take time to prepare for trial, which means offenders arrested in Sevier County stay in custody at one of the Sevier County facilities much longer.
In Arkansas, bail before trial is a constitutional right for all charges except capital offenses where the proof is evident or the presumption is great. Judges in Sevier County decide the terms of release, which can range from release on recognizance to conditions of release to a set bail amount.
Sevier County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 2,800 offenders each year.
The Sevier County Jail, run by the Sevier County Sheriff’s Office, sits at 137 W. Robinson Road in De Queen, AR 71832. Jail and sheriff calls go to the same number, (870) 642-2125. The jail has about 74 beds and holds men and women arrested in Sevier County, mostly people waiting on court, plus people serving local sentences.
For a current list of who’s inside, look for the inmate roster on the sheriff’s website, seviersheriffar.org, or in the free RPS Inmate Info app. The jail staff can also confirm by phone. If you want a call or text when the person is released or moved, register with the statewide VINELink notification service. To follow charges and hearings, use Search ARCourts.
A person held after arrest should see a judge without unnecessary delay, generally within 48 hours (Arkansas Rule of Criminal Procedure 8.1). In Arkansas, everyone is bailable before conviction except capital cases where the proof is evident or the presumption great, and under Rules 9.1–9.2 judges consider own-recognizance release or conditions before setting money bail. Bondsmen charge a premium of 10% of the bond, rounded up to the nearest $5, due before release, plus small nonrefundable state fees (Ark. Code §17-19-301). Call the jail for the bond amount and accepted payment. If you suspect a warrant, check with the sheriff’s office or an attorney before you turn yourself in.
Commissary deposits run through City Telecoin or at the kiosk in the jail lobby. Phone and video accounts are set up through City Tele Coin at citytelecoin.com. Vendors and visiting schedules change, so call the jail to confirm before you pay or drive over. Mail goes to:

There are three choices for putting money on an inmate's books:
Choice 1 - Dropping Money at the Jail
Bring money to the jail in person.
Jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment.
Some jails have self-serve kiosks in the lobbies that accept cash, debit or credit cards.
If you can't get your questions answered online call the Sevier County Jail at 870-642-2125.
Choice 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Sevier County Jail and others often use a private company to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.
Go to the online site for depositing funds. You will need to register an account, which is free to do and use a debit/credit card for the deposits.
Choice 3 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail
Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union.
Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.
Call Sevier County Jail at 870-642-2125 to confirm the address to send the money order to and how they want it made out.
Failure to do this properly will delay your inmate getting his account credited and may require you to have to resubmit a second money order.
