The Collin County Detention Facility

After an arrest by the Fairview Police Department, officers will most likely take them to the Collin County Jail, which is at 4300 Community Avenue, McKinney, TX 75071.

What Happens at the Facility

The Collin County Sheriff's Office handles booking and releases at the jail. Booking includes recording the person's information, taking fingerprints and mug shots, and conducting a medical screening. A magistrate then reviews the charges and sets bail.

Finding Someone at the Jail

Collin County maintains an online inmate list that includes everyone currently in the jail. Our team knows how to access this information, and when necessary, we can contact jail personnel to confirm that a person has been booked.

Posting Bonds

The Sheriff's Office accepts bonds at the jail. With our familiarity with this facility, we know how to file bonds correctly. We will work with people at the jail to make sure bonds are processed quickly so that a person can be released.

Steps to Help a Person Get Released From Jail

In the First Few Hours After an Arrest

Make sure you have the person's full legal name and date of birth, since jails can use this information to search records. Contact Doc's Bail Bonds as soon as you learn about the arrest. We can begin checking whether the person has been booked, what charges have been filed, and whether any holds exist from other agencies.

Once Bail Is Set

A magistrate will usually set bail within 48 hours after an arrest. When bail has been set, we will tell you the total amount and explain your options. We will review the bond agreement with you and explain the responsibilities of anyone who co-signs. You can meet us at one of our offices, at the jail, or at a courthouse to sign the paperwork.

On the Day of Release

After the bond is filed, jail staff will complete the release process. You can plan to have someone available to pick up your loved one in McKinney, since a vehicle or phone may not be available to them. Before leaving, make sure the person has received information about their first court date and any conditions on bail.

Why a Quick Release Is Important

A person who is held in jail for several days may have no way to tell an employer what happened, and missing work without notice can lead to termination. Children may need a parent to take them to school, and other family members may suddenly be responsible for bills, pets, and household duties. Getting out of jail quickly can help avoid issues that could quickly spiral into major personal and financial problems.

A quick release is also important when dealing with issues related to criminal charges. A person who returns home from jail can schedule meetings with an attorney, provide information about witnesses, and locate records or other information that may be used in their defense. Handling these issues will be much harder if a person is forced to stay in a jail cell.
