The Martin County Jail in Florida, built in 1988, has a capacity of 696 inmates, with a maximum capacity of 840 if they were to place mattresses on empty floor space and triple bunk many cells, but the fact is that they cannot effectively even house the 696 inmates they are rated for because of the mentally ill that fill the jail.
And here's why.
It is estimated by the Sheriff that as many as 30% of the inmates are mentally ill and on medications that keep them in check. He claims that the Martin County Jail, whose function it is to house criminals being punished for breaking the law, is now the largest mental health facility in the county. The worst of the worst; the most violent, end up in the county jail. And because of this, they need to isolate many of them, which takes away space that could house two or more inmates. The Sheriff is requesting an expansion of the jail by a minimum of 200-300 beds to handle this problem. Records show mental health court cases have increased by nearly 500 percent since 2017.
The Martin County Jail houses inmates who are awaiting trial as well as those who have been sentenced. It is considered a maximum security facility. The address and contact number for the Martin County Jail in Florida is 800 Southeast Monterey Road, Stuart, Florida, 34994 and 772-220-7220, respectively. You can look up recently arrested (in the previous 10 days) online, but other than that, if you need any information about an inmate, including their 6-digit inmate ID#, you need to call the jail at 772-220-7220 to get it. Without the inmate ID # you can't mail them or connect with them on visits.
Mail can be received every day and is processed and passed to the inmates quickly, however they accept white, pre-stamped post cards only. Friends and family of inmates in the Martin County Jail can arrange to visit inmates by video, both at the jail and remotely from home. Friends and family can also communicate using an online text/email system, send them money and buy them commissary online, and set up a phone account that allows the inmates to call them during the day and evening seven days a week.
All the information on these inmate services can be found in the sections below. If you still have questions, you can phone the jail 24 hours a day by calling 772-220-7220.
To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Martin County Jail, call the jail’s booking line at 772-220-7220.
There may be an automated method of looking them up by their name over the phone, or you may be directed to speak to someone at the jail. Sometimes the jail staff may ask you the offender’s date of birth to ensure privacy of the offender’s status.
Keep in mind that after an arrest, the information on an offender may not be publicly available for several hours.
If you don’t want to check up on an offender by calling the jail, you can also try looking up people recently booked online.
Martin County Jail Booking Roster
After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Martin County for booking.
Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.
Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Martin County and other Florida and USA jurisdictions.
If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.
It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.
The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.
During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.
Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.
At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.
If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Martin County Jail will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.
Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.
Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.
If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.
However if you don't want to use a bail bond agent:
Call 772-220-7220 to find out the exact bond (plus other fees) amount, or look it up online by looking up the information on the Martin County inmate locator.
