What San Angelo Booking Records Contain

A booking record is created each time someone is arrested in San Angelo and processed at the Tom Green County Detention Center. Under Texas Government Code Chapter 552, these records are public. They include the person's full name, date of birth, physical description, booking date and time, arresting agency, charges, and bond amount. Release information is added once the person exits custody.

Some records are exempt. Active investigation files, juvenile records, medical data, and certain law enforcement materials may be withheld. The sheriff's office will notify you if your request involves exempt information. A booking record does not mean the person was convicted. These records show custody events, not guilt.
