Contact Official Record Offices

This private reference site is not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, retrieve an official booking record, or decide whether a photograph is releasable. Contact the agency that maintains the record for those answers.


Castro County Custody and Records

The official county starting point for custody questions and for identifying the booking-record custodian is the Castro County Sheriff’s Office. The county’s public page does not list a dedicated jail records unit, a records email, a public roster, or a booking-photo policy. Call before visiting to confirm the correct recipient and delivery method for a written request.

Castro County Sheriff’s Office
900 E. Bedford Street
Dimmitt, TX 79027
Phone: 806-647-3311
Official sheriff information and VINELink custody-status access

For a booking or arrest record, make a written Texas Public Information Act request for existing material and ask the sheriff who holds the responsive jail record. The county records path explains the useful date-range and field details to include.


Where to Direct a Question

Choose the office based on the type and custody stage of the record. A status notification, a county booking, a court outcome, and a state-prison record are separate matters.

  • For present county custody or the proper local records custodian, use the sheriff and its VINELink path.
  • For a Dimmitt incident or arrest record, contact Dimmitt Police Department at 806-647-4545 after confirming that it holds the record.
  • For a Castro County court disposition, contact the County Clerk, 100 East Bedford Street, Room 101, Dimmitt, TX 79027, at 806-647-3338.
  • For a person in state custody, use the TDCJ Inmate Search, not a county booking request.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP locator or ICE locator that matches the jurisdiction.

The County Clerk’s published hours are Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Friday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. The clerk is the court-contact route, not a verified public warrant or booking-search service.
