The Cobb Co Jail is a detention center located at 1825 Co Services Pkwy Marietta, GA which is operated locally by the Cobb 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. Cobb County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Marietta 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 Georgia here.

The Detention Facilities Division is responsible for the following duties:

  • Inmate Processing
  • Inmate Medical Care
  • Inmate Commissary
  • Inmate Library
  • Inmate Labor Force
  • Food Service
  • Facility Security
  • Work Release Program
  • Marijuana Testing Lab
  • Custody of Pretrial and Sentenced Inmates
  • Maintenance of Incarceration Records

Work Deployment Center - The work deployment facility houses up to 384 non-violent under-sentence inmates. This facility is comprised of supervised county work crews and work release participants. Work crews are deployed daily throughout the county to various county departments and save the taxpayers annually over $2 million by performing labor that would otherwise be hired. The work release participants are sentenced inmates who serve their sentence in a minimum-security facility while be released during the day to work. To qualify for the work release program, inmates must pass a thorough background investigation and must be gainfully employed and/or enrolled in school or training classes.
