How is bail set and how do I post bond at Bledsoe County Correctional Complex?
Bail is set by the court before a case is resolved. Because this is a state correctional facility, people held here are usually in state custody and may not be eligible for bond through the facility; contact the court clerk or the agency that handled the arrest for bond information.
What happens during the intake process at Bledsoe County Correctional Complex and when will the inmate appear in the system?
