Bartow County Jail

All inmates at the Bartow County Detention Center have access to our inmate e-mail system via kiosks in each housing unit. E-mail messages can be sent from an inmte to anyone who has an valid email address. This system allows messages to be sent COD if the sender does not have funds to cover the cost. Jail Quarantine Announcement In response to some of the jail inmates coming back with positive Covid-19 tests we are quarantining the entire jail population effective today, October 14th. Even though these that have tested positive have been largely asymptomatic (not having bad symptoms like low oxygen levels etc.) we think it is prudent to quarantine to prevent the further spread. ​You will still be able to do video visitation, phone calls, e-mails etc. with the folks in custody. We have observed the mistruths that have been posted on social media the last couple of days, I can assure you that we are monitoring all the inmates in the facility and we are testing and following the state health departments guidelines and recommendations. We provide medical care to the inmates that far exceeds what most of them receive while they are not in custody. ​Please do not call and ask if your relative or loved one has tested positive, due to HIPPA regulations we cannot release this information to you. If the inmate tests positive they will be told the results of their test and they can share it with you if they wish. Please do not believe everything you read on social media, some folks just like to spread rumors and panic when there is no need.
