Ordinary family video visitors may use either Central Video at 9620 Weisman Way or West County Video at 2890 State Road 15, regardless of which of the two jails houses the person. Central Detention Center is closed; Central Video remains active. The Town of Palm Beach, West Palm Beach and Belle Glade are different places. City arrest location does not establish current jail housing. Youth, state/community-release, contract and independent federal/ICE custody remain separate. Open the adult guide for approval, addresses, care, money and release.

Different custody systems.
Different places to start.

A Palm Beach County arrest usually means the county jail. A state sentence, a federal case or an immigration hold means a different system with its own locator and rules.

Who holds someone arrested in Palm Beach County?

Usually Palm Beach County Main Detention Center, (561) 688-4400. The arresting agency books the person and the jail holds them; ask the jail what holds are on the booking before you act on anything.

Does posting bond mean the person comes home?

Not always. A probation or parole hold, another county\'s warrant, or an immigration detainer can keep someone in custody after bond is posted. Ask the jail what holds are on the booking, and ask the bondsman what happens if there are, before you pay.

What should I confirm before visiting?

Confirm the person\'s current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility guide before you travel.

What if I find something that needs correcting?

Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
