The Bradford Co Jail is a detention center located at 945-A N Temple Ave Starke, FL which is operated locally by the Bradford County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Bradford County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Starke Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.

New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for Florida here.

The Bradford County Jail, built in 1995, houses both male and female inmates in separate sections, with classification levels of Maximum, Medium, and Minimum security.

Personal Property: Only prescription eyeglasses, dentures, or orthopedic supplies are accepted, subject to medical staff approval. Clothing, pens, paper, stamps, and envelopes must be purchased through the commissary. Bibles and reading materials are not accepted.

Inmates can make phone calls between 7 AM and 11 PM. They are not allowed to use staff phones except in emergencies. Collect call telephones are available in each pod from 10 AM to 11 PM on weekdays and until 2 AM on weekends, provided the pod is clean and orderly. A PIN is required to make calls, formatted from the inmate's MNI number. Inmates cannot use another inmate's PIN.

Inmates' money is placed into an account for commissary purchases. To send money out (one-time only), a request must be submitted to the Captain. Funds deposited into inmate accounts must come from official sources or approved individuals. Deposits can be made via phone (1-866-345-1884), online (www.commissarydeposit.com), or at the jail lobby kiosk (Monday-Friday 8 AM – 5 PM). Inmates cannot transfer money to another inmate's account.

Books and magazines ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate.

Inmate Telephone Call Policies - Bradford County Jail uses Securus Telephone Services. Inmates can use the phone from 10 AM to 11 PM daily, with calls limited to 15 minutes. Disciplinary Confinement inmates are restricted from making calls unless authorized, while Administrative Confinement inmates are allowed one 15-minute call daily. Incoming calls are not permitted, and no messages are taken except from attorneys.
