Cameron Jail and Records Contacts
Start with the Cameron County Sheriff's Office when the question concerns county custody. The Sheriff's contact directory lists its main jail-system contact at 7300 Old Alice Road, Olmito, TX 78575, telephone 956-554-6700. Carrizales-Rucker Detention Center is at 7100 Old Alice Road, Olmito, TX 78575, telephone 956-554-6701. The other county components are Ruben M. Torres Sr. Cameron County Detention Center No. 1, 1145 East Harrison Street, Brownsville, TX 78520, 956-544-0836, and the Alex F. Perez / Old County Jail, 954 East Harrison Street, Brownsville, TX 78520, 956-544-0865.
No verified general walk-in records hours were found. Call before traveling. The Sheriff's published Monday, Tuesday, and Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. schedule applies narrowly to property pickup, not to records service. Property tied to a TDCJ transfer has a separate weekday process and requires advance arrangements.
Use the route that matches the question:
- For a released inmate or release record, the home page gives the complete lookup and public-information request path.
- For supervision after release, consult Probation & Parole.
- For a recent county exit, review Jail Releases: 24 Hours, which explains why the roster is not a verified release feed.
- For timing or alerts, use Projected Release and the VINELink Inmate Search.
- For one detention location, use the four facility pages in the footer.
- For a sentenced Texas prisoner, use the official TDCJ inmate search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE contacts below.
Cameron Court Record Contacts
A court disposition may explain whether a jail exit followed bond, dismissal, a sentence, or transfer. Cameron County District Clerk criminal records are handled at 974 East Harrison Street, Brownsville, TX 78520. The criminal-record telephone number is 956-544-0839, and email requests may be sent to dcrecords@co.cameron.tx.us. The clerk's copy form states an estimated response time of two to five business days and identifies search, retrieval, and certified-copy charges that may apply. General public-information requests to the county can also be filed through the Cameron County NextRequest portal.
Pre-Trial Services is at 974 East Harrison Street, second floor, Brownsville, TX 78520. Its telephone number is 956-574-8118, and its published email is PTSupervision@co.cameron.tx.us. Contact that office only when the court placed the person under Cameron County pretrial supervision.
Texas Release and Parole Contacts
TDCJ and the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles handle state-prison and parole questions, not Cameron County jail bookings. The BPP Offender Status Line is 844-512-0461, the board's main number is 512-406-5452, and Review and Release Processing can be reached at 512-406-5202 for the status matters that office handles. TDCJ Victim Services and IVSS list 800-848-4284 and victim.svc@tdcj.texas.gov. The current county notification portal is IVSS-Counties; Texas Attorney General support is listed as 866-268-8959. Confirm current hours and support numbers on the agency site before calling because published state materials do not always agree.
Port Isabel and Federal Contacts
Port Isabel Service Processing Center is an ICE facility at 27991 Buena Vista Boulevard, Los Fresnos, TX 78566, telephone 956-547-1700. It is not part of the county jail. Use the ICE Online Detainee Locator for current or recently released immigration custody, then call the facility if the locator does not resolve the question. An ICE transfer is not the same as community release.
The Southern District of Texas Brownsville Division is at 600 East Harrison Street, Brownsville, TX 78520. Its published contacts are the Clerk at 956-548-2500, U.S. Marshal at 956-548-2519, and U.S. Probation at 956-548-2522. For a sentenced federal person, check the BOP Inmate Locator first. Pretrial USMS custody may not appear there. No verified walk-in hours were established for these contacts, so call or check the official office page before a visit.
