What a Gholson arrest looks like

01

Arrest and transport

Police in Gholson, the McLennan County Sheriff and DPS all transport to the same detention center on East Highway 6 in Waco.

02

Booking

Fingerprints, photograph and property intake. This is where most of the waiting happens, and it is the stage nobody can shorten — including us.

03

Bail is set

Misdemeanors often follow a bail schedule and are known immediately. Felonies are set at magistration, usually within 24 hours of booking.

04

We post the bond

Once the amount is on the record and the agreement is signed, we file. Release then depends on the jail working through its queue.

Who makes the arrest in Gholson

Gholson is a small incorporated city in northern McLennan County, with a population of around 1,250 at the 2020 census. At that size, patrol falls largely to the McLennan County Sheriff’s Office, with the Department of Public Safety covering the highways.

A bondable arrest goes to the McLennan County Detention Center on East Highway 6 in Waco. It is the only facility in the county that accepts bonds, so wherever in McLennan County the arrest happened, that is where release takes place.

What to have ready when you call

The full legal name and the date of birth. Booking staff work from identifiers, not descriptions, and without a date of birth a lookup can stall for an hour on a common surname.

As cosigner you will need a valid photo ID, a working phone number, and proof of residence or income. Most bonds do not require collateral; on some larger bonds it may be required, decided case by case. The whole bond can be signed online, on a phone, or in our office.

Every hour they sit in there is an hour you can end.
