01
Police in Ross, the McLennan County Sheriff and DPS all transport to the same detention center on East Highway 6 in Waco.
02
Fingerprints, photograph and property intake. This is where most of the waiting happens, and it is the stage nobody can shorten — including us.
03
Misdemeanors often follow a bail schedule and are known immediately. Felonies are set at magistration, usually within 24 hours of booking.
04
Once the amount is on the record and the agreement is signed, we file. Release then depends on the jail working through its queue.

Call (254) 855-9885 See our ratesRoss is an incorporated city in northern McLennan County with a population of around 245 at the 2020 census — small enough that day-to-day 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, the only facility in the county where bonds are posted. It does not matter which agency made the arrest or how small the town is; the destination is the same.
The process runs the same way it does for Waco. Booking takes as long as it takes. A magistrate sets bail, usually within 24 hours, and sooner for misdemeanors on a bail schedule. Once the amount is on the record and the agreement is signed, we file within 30–45 minutes.
What a small town does change is how quickly word travels, which is why we handle these quietly. Neighbours, employers and the rest of the family hear nothing from us.
