How to Leave an Urgent Message for Someone at Limestone County Detention Center

This process is for information that truly can't wait: a family emergency, a critical legal update, or a time-sensitive change someone needs to hear about. For non-urgent communication, Limestone County Detention Center has in-facility tablets, and you can send non-confidential messages through JailATM. If your issue is bond-related, CeBonds lets you verify bond information, post bonds for eligible detained aliens, and receive electronic notifications.

Call (254) 729-2674 to leave an urgent message for a detainee at Limestone County Detention Center. This is also the general information line, and the listed calling window is 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Calling during those hours gives you the best chance of reaching staff and getting your message taken.

• ✓ Call (254) 729-2674 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. for general information inquiries
• ✓ Have the person’s biographical details ready before you call (full name, any aliases, date of birth, country of birth)

When you call (254) 729-2674, have the detainee's details and your own information ready. Here's a simple script you can copy and read: "Hi, I need to leave an urgent message for a detainee at Limestone County Detention Center. The detainee's full name is [FULL NAME] and the alien registration number is [A-NUMBER]. My name is [YOUR NAME] and my callback number is [YOUR PHONE NUMBER]. The message is: [BRIEF URGENT MESSAGE]."

• ✓ Detainee’s full name (include first, last, and any hyphenated names)
• ✓ Any aliases the detainee may use
• ✓ Date of birth
• ✓ Country of birth
• ✓ Alien registration number
• ✓ Your name
• ✓ Your telephone number where you can be reached

Once you provide the detainee's full name, alien registration number, and your name and telephone number, staff will pass the message along. Keep your wording clear and focused on what they need to know.

Can't get through by phone, or calling outside the 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. window? You still have a couple of options. Limestone County Detention Center has tablets, and non-confidential messaging goes through JailATM. If your urgent issue is specifically about bond, CeBonds lets you verify bond information, post bonds for eligible detained aliens, and receive electronic notifications.

1. Call again during the staffed window - Use (254) 729-2674 and try during 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., since that is when general information calls are listed as available.
2. Use tablet messaging for non-confidential notes - Limestone County Detention Center has tablets, and JailATM provides information on how to send a non-confidential message.
3. Use CeBonds for bond needs - If the situation involves bond, CeBonds lets you verify bond information, post bonds for eligible detained aliens, and receive electronic notifications.
