Maverick County Jail Roster Status
No official Maverick County jail roster or inmate-search form was located on the county website during the research review. That is the first fact to use when looking for someone held at Tom Bowles Detention Center. A user should start with the Maverick County Sheriff's Office and jail line at 830-773-2321, then use the county open-records process if a copy of a booking record is needed. Sheriff Tom Schmerber is listed in the official county contact directory, along with Chief Deputy Roberto De Leon, Jail TBDC contact Roberto Parra, and Jail LT Joshua Cruz.
The county roster gap does not mean there are no inmate records. It means records are reached through the jail phone, county open records, court clerks, and outside locators. Tom Bowles handles local pretrial detainees, local sentenced categories, TDCJ-sentenced transfer categories, and in-state contract inmates. Eagle Pass Detention Facility is separate and is tied to federal custody through GEO and the U.S. Marshals Service. Sentenced Texas prisoners move to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and federal or immigration custody follows federal tools.
The Maverick County contact directory is the official source for the sheriff and jail contact route.
Use that directory to confirm current office listings before relying on a third-party roster page or a stale phone number.

Maverick County Roster Search Fields
The official county roster field list is not available because no county-published online roster was located. Other official locators do have search fields. TDCJ accepts name, TDCJ number, or SID number for sentenced Texas prisoners. BOP accepts federal numbers or name details. ICE ODLS accepts A-Number and country of birth, or biographical data.
| System | Fields | Use It For | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maverick County jail | No official web fields located | Tom Bowles current custody | Use phone and open records. |
| TDCJ | Last name, first initial, TDCJ number, SID, gender, race | Texas state prisoners | Current TDCJ custody only. |
| BOP | Register, DCDC, FBI, INS number, or name, age, race, sex | Federal post-sentence inmates | Does not list public mugshots. |
| ICE ODLS | A-Number and country, or name, birth country, date of birth | Immigration detention | JavaScript required. |
| VINELink | Limited custody-notification search | Release or status alerts | Not a full record portal. |
Maverick County Inmate Profile Fields
A Maverick County booking record may contain fields that are not visible on a public web page. Ask for the record by name, date of birth, approximate booking date, and arresting agency. Some fields may be withheld, redacted, or unavailable if an exception applies under Texas law, if the case involves a juvenile, or if an investigation is active.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name and aliases | Identity used at booking and possible alternate spellings. |
| Date of birth or age | Helps distinguish people with similar names. |
| Booking date and time | When the person entered jail custody. |
| Arresting agency | The agency that made the arrest or delivered the person. |
| Charges at booking | Initial allegations before prosecutor review. |
| Bond or hold status | Cash, surety, personal bond, no bond, detainer, or transfer status. |
| Mugshot | Not confirmed online; request through records if release is allowed. |
Find County State Federal Inmates
Tom Bowles Detention Center records answer a different question than TDCJ, BOP, ICE, or re:SearchTX. Jail records answer whether a person was booked or is in local custody. Court records answer what charge the prosecutor filed. TDCJ answers where a sentenced Texas prisoner is housed. BOP answers federal sentenced custody, while USMS and facility contact may be needed for federal pretrial detainees.
| Custody Type | Where to Look | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Recent local arrest | 830-773-2321 | The county did not publish a roster. |
| Releasable booking copy | Maverick County Open Records | Email openrecords@co.maverick.tx.us with a specific request. |
| Formal court charge | re:SearchTX or clerk office | Booking charges can differ from filed court charges. |
| Sentenced Texas prisoner | TDCJ inmate search | County jail is no longer the main lookup path. |
| Federal or immigration custody | BOP, facility, USMS, or ICE ODLS | Eagle Pass detention may involve federal authority. |

Booking Process in Maverick County
A typical Maverick County arrest moves from arrest to transport, intake search, property inventory, identity check, booking photo, fingerprints, charge entry, warrant and hold checks, medical screening, classification, and housing assignment. The county did not publish a local intake timeline, so do not assume a person will appear in any public system right away. Family members should call the jail rather than refreshing a non-existent county roster.
After intake, the court process starts to separate from the jail record. A booking charge may change after the District Attorney reviews evidence. District Attorney Roberto Serna is listed at 830-773-9268. District Clerk Leopoldo Vielma is listed at 830-773-2629, and County Clerk Sara Montemayor is listed at 830-773-2829. Those offices matter once the question becomes what charge was filed in court.
Maverick County Jail Visit Rules
No official Tom Bowles visitation schedule, video-visit vendor, dress code, lobby hours, child-visitor rule, or attorney-visit schedule was located in county pages reviewed in official sources. The correct public instruction is to call the jail before travel. Bring government photo ID unless the jail gives different instructions, and do not assume any third-party vendor is official unless the jail confirms it.
| Visit Topic | Official Result | Practical Step |
|---|---|---|
| In-person schedule | Not published in reviewed county pages | Call 830-773-2321 before travel. |
| Visitor ID | Not published | Ask what government ID is required. |
| Video visits | No vendor located | Do not create an account until the jail confirms the vendor. |
| Attorney visits | Not published | Attorneys should call for professional-visit rules. |
| Holiday or lockdown limits | Not published | Confirm same-day before leaving. |
