Understanding the booking process at McCormick County Detention Center
After an arrest, individuals are taken to McCormick County Detention Center where they go through booking. This process includes identifying the person, reviewing charges, and determining whether they will be released on their own, eligible for bail, or detained until their court date.

- Possibly collecting DNA samples.
- Performing a full-body search.
