How bail works in Bexar County
After an arrest, the person is booked at the Bexar County Adult Detention Center (200 N Comal St, San Antonio, TX). Within a few hours, a magistrate judge sets a bond amount based on the charge, prior history, and flight risk. There are three common paths to release:
- Cash bond — the full bond amount is posted directly to the jail. Refundable after the case resolves.
- Surety bond — a licensed Texas bail bondsman posts the full bond for a non-refundable fee, typically 10% of the bond amount.
- Personal bond / PR bond — the judge releases the defendant on their own recognizance without requiring money up front, usually for lower-level offenses.
How quickly can someone be released?
Once bond is posted, release from the Bexar County Adult Detention Center typically takes 4–8 hours, depending on jail volume. A bail bondsman can begin paperwork immediately and is often the fastest path to release for higher bond amounts. Call buttons on each booking page connect directly to a licensed Texas bondsman serving Bexar County 24 hours a day.
Frequently asked questions
How current are these arrest records?
Records are refreshed from the official Bexar County jail roster every 10 minutes. The timestamp on each booking page shows exactly when that record was last verified.
Does appearing here mean someone is guilty?
No. An arrest is not a conviction. Every person listed is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law. This site mirrors public booking data and does not reflect later case outcomes such as dismissals, acquittals, or expungements.
Can I request to have a record removed?
Yes. If a record on this site is yours and the case has been dismissed, expunged, or is more than 90 days old, you can submit a removal request from the booking record's page.
Who do the call buttons connect to?
Each "Call 24/7" button routes to a licensed Bexar County bail bondsman. There is no obligation to use the service — calls are free and the bondsman can answer questions about bond amounts, release timelines, and payment options.
What's the difference between a bond amount and a bail premium?
The bond amount is the full sum set by the judge (e.g., $5,000). The bail bond premium is what you pay a bondsman to post the bond on your behalf — usually 10% of the bond amount, non-refundable.
