If you get multiple results, filter by date of birth. If the roster is not available online, call the Haskell County Sheriff's Office at (940) 864-3530. Allow 4 to 8 hours after arrest for the booking to complete and the record to appear in the system.
The Haskell County Jail may have multiple housing wings or pods.

Texas law guarantees a magistration hearing within 48 hours of arrest, during which bail is set. The bail amount will appear on the booking record once set.

A licensed Texas bail bondsman can post bail in exchange for a non-refundable premium of approximately 10 percent of the total bail amount. For a $10,000 bail, the bondsman fee is $1,000. The bondsman posts a surety bond with the court, and the defendant is released pending trial. Call (346) 352-1115 to reach a licensed Haskell County bondsman available right now.
