About the Ector County Detention Center

The Ector County Detention Center recently completed a construction project to expand its facilities. The project included the construction of a new cell block called the 5000 block, which meets maximum security standards but is not exclusively for maximum security inmates. Alongside the new cell block, a new inmate booking center was also built. This expansion has increased the jail's maximum capacity from 667 inmates to 1,079 inmates, allowing more inmates to be housed locally and facilitating easier contact with their attorneys. The utilization of the new cell block has been gradual as the jail works to fulfill its staffing needs. The jail is now 60,000 square feet larger than it was, about the size of a large grocery store. It cost the county over $20 million.

In terms of inmate visitation, the jail offers multiple in-person sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The morning session begins at 8:30 am, the afternoon session starts at 2:00 pm, and the evening session begins at 5:00 pm. Each visitation period allows for a 20-minute visit, and an inmate is allowed two visits per week. Visitors who have traveled 100 miles or more may be granted a 30-minute visit upon approval by the administration. Visitors are required to present valid identification from their city or town of residence. In addition, the Ector County Detention Center works with a third party video visitation service so that friends and mily can visit remotely.

To send books to an inmate, only paperback books of a non-elicit nature are accepted. Inmates can receive books or magazines by placing an order through a catalog warehouse or the internet, with the items shipped directly to the inmate at the provided address. Magazines must not contain explicit or inappropriate content, and certain publications may be banned. Religious materials are only accepted through the ministry program. Handwritten or typed letters, pictures, money orders, cashier's checks, and government checks are acceptable, while cash is not accepted. Other items sent through the mail may be considered contraband and handled accordingly.

Regarding phone services, Securus works in conjunction with Budget Connections to manage the inmate phone system. To block or unblock a phone number, individuals should contact Budget Connections at 888-610-7079 and provide the facility address. Inmates have access to the phone system from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm every day.

Mail can be received every day and is processed and passed to the inmates quickly, however the jail uses a digital service to avoid contraband entering the facility. Friends and family of inmates in the Ector County Detention Center can arrange to visit inmates by video, both at the jail and remotely from home. They 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 432-335-3060.
