Jail Operations

Our Purpose

The Henry County Jail is a pre-trial detention center that houses detainees in accordance with state law while providing a safe environment for both detainees and employees. We have the capacity to house 900 detainees between two facilities. Our detainee population consists mainly of pretrial and state sentenced detainees. At capacity, the Henry County Jail delivers nearly 2700 meals per day and provides comprehensive medical, mental health, and dental services to detainees.
