Who to Contact When You Have Questions About Someone at Glynn County Detention
Getting answers about someone at Glynn County Detention Center comes down to calling the right office. Here's a breakdown of what the Sheriff's Office handles versus what goes through State Court—plus the contact info you'll need.
The Glynn County Sheriff's Office runs the Glynn County Detention Center (GCDC). Most questions about the jail itself - day-to-day custody, inmate status, that sort of thing - go through the Sheriff's Office, not the courts.
If you posted bond for someone and want to be released from that responsibility before their court date, you'll need to physically return the defendant to GCDC. Once you do, you'll receive an off-bond receipt and a lien cancellation document.
Questions about the detention center - checking someone's status, asking about GCDC operations - start with the Glynn County Sheriff's Office.
