Finding Someone in Custody in Texas County
A person kept in custody after an arrest in Texas County is held at the county jail, run by the Texas County Sheriff's Office, whichever agency made the arrest.
SearchSystems opened and checked the custody page of the Texas County Sheriff's Office at jctxsheriff.org/texas (page title: Texas Inmate Search | Texas DOC Offender Lookup), a site that blocks automated checks (HTTP 403), so open it in a browser.
Someone booked recently shows on that page; someone cited and released at the scene, or held a few hours at a city station, does not.
The Texas County Jail by the Numbers
On an average day in 2023 the jail held about 43 people, up from about 33 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2019, the last year with a capacity figure, was 102 beds, and it ran at 32 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.

The Texas County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Guymon, Hooker, Goodwell, Texhoma and Tyrone make the arrests that end in a booking in Texas County.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Texas County: District Attorneys Council at Drug Task Force 1 (other agency); Oklahoma Panhandle State University (campus police).
The largest arrest counts reported to the FBI were Guymon's 214 for 2025, the Texas County Sheriff's Office's 74 for 2025 and Hooker's 19 for 2025.
Together, the five agencies in Texas County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 314 arrests to the FBI that year. Those kept in custody were booked into the county jail; a person cited and released at the scene was not.
The counts, agency by agency and year by year, are in Texas County arrest records.
From the Jail to State Prison
A sentence of more than a year is served in state prison, not the jail; the Oklahoma Department of Corrections lists its inmates at okoffender.doc.ok.gov.
