This facility is for adult inmates.
The Houston County AL Jail is a medium-security detention center located at 901 East Main St Dothan, AL which is operated locally by the Houston County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Houston County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Dothan Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.
The county jail houses those charged and awaiting trial, those arrested on warrants, those serving sentences at the county jail, those placed on holds by Parole and Probation, those sentenced to and awaiting beds in the state prison system or Community Corrections, those sentenced by municipal courts in our county as well as others placed here on holds for other agencies.
The Jail can house subjects accused of all levels of charges. We are responsible for securely holding all of these individuals as well as providing a safe environment. Pretrial confinement is not for punishment purposes. It is merely to assure that the arrestee appears in court. Sentenced inmates, on the other hand, are here as punishment for their offense.
