Contacts

This is a private reference site, not the Sabine County Sheriff's Office, a jail desk, a court clerk, or a government records office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release a person, post bond, schedule a visit, or pull an official booking record. Use the official contacts below for those tasks.


Where to Route Jail and Court Questions

For current custody, booking, bond, release, transfer, or booking-photo questions, start with the Sabine County Jail and Sheriff's Office. The official sheriff page names Sheriff George Griffith and lists the sheriff mailing address, phone, and fax. The Texas Sheriffs' Association profile supplies the physical reference address used for the sheriff and jail contact point.

Sabine County's Public Information Act page says requests must be written and detailed enough for the county to identify the record. For Sheriff Department records, the county gives a narrower rule: hand deliver the written request in person or send it by U.S. Post Office to PO Box 848, Hemphill, TX 75948.

  • For a person currently or recently in local custody, use jail inmate records and call the sheriff at 409-787-2266.
  • For a booking photograph that is not posted online, review jail roster mugshots and use the sheriff public-information request route.
  • For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and route the request to the correct clerk or court.
  • For the local jail facility, use the Sabine County Jail page and confirm visitation, mail, and money rules before acting.
  • For a sentenced Texas prisoner, use the Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate search rather than the Sabine County jail contact.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System, depending on the custody type.

For courthouse records, route felony and district criminal case files to the District Clerk at P.O. Box 850, 201 Main Street Courthouse, Hemphill, Texas 75948, phone 409-787-2912, or districtclerk@co.sabine.tx.us. County-court and clerk-held records may involve County Clerk Jamie Clark at 280 Main Street Suite 100, Hemphill, TX 75948, phone 409-787-3786. Justice of the Peace matters may involve Precinct 1 at 409-787-3719 or Precinct 2 at 409-787-5248.
