Why This Guide Exists
Texas makes many jail and inmate records available to the public, but Coryell County has more than one custody track. Sheriff Scott Williams and the Coryell County Sheriff's Office operate the local Coryell County Jail roster for current county custody, while TDCJ handles sentenced prisoners at Gatesville units such as Crain, Hilltop, Hughes, Murray, O'Daniel, and Woodman. Federal BOP, ICE, and VINELink searches are separate tools, so this site brings those routes, facility details, visitation starting points, and records-request steps into one plain-language guide.

Limits of This Site
This is a privately operated reference site. It is not part of the Coryell County Sheriff's Office, the Coryell County Jail, TDCJ, BOP, ICE, VINELink, any court, or any Texas government agency.
- We cannot release, hold, transport, or transfer anyone in custody.
- We cannot post bond, schedule visits, put money on an account, or arrange jail services.
- We cannot provide legal advice about charges, warrants, bond, expunction, or court strategy.
- We cannot guarantee that a phone number, fee, roster field, or address has not changed since the source was reviewed.
Current custody status, charges, release eligibility, and official record copies must be confirmed with the sheriff's office, TDCJ, or the office that created the record. This site can point to the likely source, but it is not the source.
Search Partners and Referrals
Some pages may show search tools from outside providers. Those providers control their own prices, sign-up terms, data handling, and search results. If a visitor chooses a paid partner service after using one of those tools, this site may receive a referral fee that helps keep the Coryell County reference pages available without charging readers directly.
