This facility is for adult inmates.
The Walton County GA Detention Center is a medium-security detention center located at 1425 S Madison Ave Monroe, GA which is operated locally by the Walton 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. Walton County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Monroe Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.
Inmates will be allowed to have in their possession or housing area only authorized or issued items and materials. All other items and materials including, altered or misused items or materials, will be considered contraband and confiscated. All items brought into the Walton County Jail will be subject to search. Any inappropriate items found could result in prosecution of the individual bringing items to the jail.
Accumulation of authorized item materials considered excessive and constituting a safety, security or health hazard will be confiscated as contraband. Any misuse or abuse of authorized items or materials which hinders or restrict safety and security surveillance by staff members or electronic devices is prohibited. Daily inspections will be conducted. Searches are routine and used to control the introduction of contraband.

Visit Time Limits
Each visit may last up to thirty minutes but may be limited to ensure equal visitations periods for all eligible inmates. Inmates are allowed two visitors during each visitation period.
Visitors under 18 years old
If a child can walk he/she is considered a visitor. They will also count as one of the two visitors allowed each period. If children are disruptive and causing problems for the other inmates during visitation you will be asked to leave. Persons under the age of eighteen (18) may visit only if they are a member of the inmates immediate family and are accompanied by an adult, parent or guardian.
Visitor Identification
Visitor(s) must have a valid picture ID when they come to visit (for example, a Driver's License, Passport, or State ID.) Visitors must arrive at least 30 minutes before visitation starts to sign in. We have to run a very strict visitation schedule to ensure all inmates are allowed to visit. Late arrivals may be cut short or forfeited. Failure to comply with an officer's instructions could result in visitation privileges being lost.
Special Visitation
Visitation by legal counsel, ministers, and other privileged individuals will be conducted with the most privacy available and will not be limited or restricted during normal hours. However, such visitation may be suspended or delayed during scheduled facility programs and services. Special visits require specific approval. A written request by the inmate must be submitted to the Detention Commander or his designee for approval. Visitors will need a picture ID and other specific identification (Bar card, Ministers ID, Clergy ID, Verification from Church, etc.) when arriving for their visit.
Visitor Clothing
Visitors must wear appropriate clothing. No tank tops, halter tops, short shorts (fingertip length), mini skirts or see-through clothing will be allowed. Visitors may be searched anytime while within the Guard Line. Refusal of the search request may suspend visitation.
Prohibited Items
Cell phones are not allowed. Anyone bringing any type of contraband across the guard line will be criminally charged in accordance with Georgia law.
