Understanding the Willacy County Jail Roster: What the Listings and Bond Amounts Do (and Don't) Tell You

The roster header tells you when the list was pulled and how many people were on it at that moment. You'll see a snapshot date like "AUGUST 27, 2019" and a count (for example, "TOTAL 49"). Those two lines matter because everything else you're reading is time-specific.

Each entry is organized around the person's identity information. You'll see the inmate's name (for example, "ALEJANDRO JOSHUA") and often a date of birth like "12/25/97." If you're looking up someone with a common name, the DOB helps you confirm you're reading the right listing.

Entries also show where the booking came from and the booking date. You may see agency abbreviations like RPD, WCSO, or DPS, followed by a date in a format like "08/26/19." That date is useful context, especially if you're comparing the roster to what you've heard from family, an attorney, or a bondsman.

Below the identifying and booking information, the roster lists charges in plain text. One entry, for example, shows "EVADING ARREST/DETENTION W VEHICLE" and "RESISTING ARREST." Some listings also include brief court or disposition notes, such as "DISTRICT COURT," which can hint at where the case is being handled or what stage it's in.

Bond information appears alongside the charges and can be listed per charge. You might see a format like "1.) $10,000 2.) $5,000" matching the numbered charges above it. Some entries show "NO BOND" for particular items. The sample includes a wide range of amounts, including very large bonds for serious charges (for example, "MURDER 1ST DEGREE" with "$2,000,000").

The roster includes a clear disclaimer about accuracy: "Willacy County and the Willacy County Sheriff Department do not warrant the accuracy of said information and shall not be responsible for inaccuracies, if any, therein." That wording is your cue to treat the roster as a helpful starting point, not the final word on someone's status, charges, or bond.

Because the county doesn't warrant the accuracy of this information, verify before making plans or payments based on what you see. The fastest way to confirm whether a listing is current is to call the Willacy County Sheriff's Department Jail Division at (956) 689-5576. Ask staff to confirm the person's custody status and the bond information shown on the snapshot.

On the Willacy County roster, bond is shown as dollar amounts tied to specific charges (one charge may show one amount, a second charge another). Keep the header date in mind, such as "AUGUST 27, 2019," because the amounts reflect what the roster showed at that point in time.

Some entries explicitly say "NO BOND." When you see that notation, it means the roster is reporting that a particular charge or warrant has no bond amount on that snapshot. It doesn't replace confirmation from the jail or the court.

If you're trying to post bond or figure out next steps, use the roster as a reference point, then confirm the current bond status through the right channels. Start by calling the Willacy County Sheriff's Department Jail Division at (956) 689-5576 to verify the bond amounts shown per charge. Then talk with the appropriate court or a bail bond agent about options for that specific case.

1. Call the jail to confirm the current bond status: Contact the Willacy County Sheriff’s Department Jail Division at (956) 689-5576 and reference the roster snapshot date you are looking at. Ask whether the “NO BOND” notation or high bond amount still applies right now.
2. Ask what information they can confirm: Use the roster’s per-charge bond layout as a guide (for example, separate amounts per numbered charge), and have the person’s name and DOB ready so staff can locate the correct record.

Once you have confirmation, decide who you need to speak with next (legal counsel or a bail bond agent, for example) based on the verified information. If you need to contact the jail directly, the Willacy County Sheriff's Department Jail Division is located at 1371 Industrial Dr., Raymondville, Texas 78580. The phone number is (956) 689-5576.

If the roster entry includes a court note like "DISTRICT COURT," treat that as a prompt to verify the case status through the appropriate court. The booking date shown on the roster (for example, "08/26/19") can also help you and your attorney or bondsman match the entry to the correct case timeline.
