When an offender is arrested and brought to the Deaf Smith County Jail in Hereford for booking, there are several outcomes after being processed.

1. The offender will be released with no bail, promising to return on a specific date to appear before a judge in either Municipal or Deaf Smith County Court.

The payment of an offender's bail or bond can take many shapes.

• A cash bond is paid in full at the jail's bonding window or the clerk of court, usually by cash, cashier's check or money order, and many jails also take debit or credit cards through a lobby kiosk or an online bond vendor for an added fee; bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and the jail's number is 806-364-2311.
• It can be paid using a bail company, licensed to do business in Deaf Smith County.
• Many courts accept land or a home as bond collateral; the owner shows clear title and equity of at least the bond amount, often double, using a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, and the court that set bail approves the property.

You should verify your visitor approval status with the facility prior to scheduling. If you do not register well in advance, you will miss your loved one's scheduled visiting window for the week.

• Visit customer.cidnet.net or launch the CIDNET app.
• Register your visitor profile and upload a clear photograph of your government-issued ID and a verification photo.

• Ensure your account has sufficient Data Points to cover the duration of the visit.
• Select Video Visitation, select the detention facility, and pick an available calendar time slot.
• Log into the website or mobile app 10 minutes prior to the start time on a device with a functioning camera, microphone, and stable high-speed internet connection.

What the Inmate Needs to Do

The inmate receives a schedule notification on their housing unit video kiosk or tablet. At the appointed time, they log in with their PIN and sit before the screen.
