The process here

What a Woodway arrest looks like

01

Arrest and transport

Police in Woodway, 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.

Woodway’s officers are firefighters too

Woodway is unusual. Rather than separate police and fire departments it runs a Public Safety Department at 920 Estates Drive, where every sworn officer is cross-trained as both a police officer and a firefighter — one of only a handful of departments in Texas organised that way.

They work the city; the McLennan County Sheriff’s Office and DPS cover the county roads around it. Wherever the arrest is made, a bondable charge is booked into the McLennan County Detention Center on East Highway 6 in Waco.

Court and bonds are in different buildings

Woodway Municipal Court also operates out of the Public Safety building on Estates Drive, with judge sessions held weekly. Its jurisdiction is Class C misdemeanors and citations, settled directly with the court.

We do not write bonds for those, and our smallest bond is $1,000. For a felony or a Class A or B misdemeanor, the bond is posted at the county detention center, minutes from our office on East Waco Drive. Call and we will tell you what the charge actually is before anything is signed.
