The Turner Guilford Knight Correctional is a detention center located at 7000 NW 41st St Miami, FL which is operated locally by the Dade 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. Dade County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Miami Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.
