Diboll, TX Diboll Correctional Center View
Diboll Correctional Center is a secure correctional facility in Diboll, Angelina County, Texas. It is operated by Management & Training Corporation under contract with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The facility primarily houses sentenced adult state inmates rather than people newly arrested or awaiting trial in a county jail.

People arrested locally in Angelina County are generally processed through the county jail before any later transfer to a state facility, if applicable.
Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Diboll Correctional Center
To find someone held here, use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility roster or state inmate locator. Inmate records typically list identifying details such as name, inmate or booking number, booking or admission date when available, offense or charges, housing location, and custody status. For state inmates, records may show conviction and sentence information instead of local booking details. After a person is booked or transferred, processing can take several hours, so records may not appear immediately. If the person was just arrested in Angelina County, check the county jail roster first because newly arrested people are usually processed there before any transfer.
FAQs
How do I visit an inmate at Diboll Correctional Center?
Visitation is usually controlled by facility rules and may require the inmate to place you on an approved visitor list. Check the official visitation instructions before going, because days, hours, scheduling, and dress rules can change.
What do I need to bring when visiting Diboll Correctional Center?
Visitors generally need a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver license, state ID, or passport. Bring only allowed items, and confirm rules for minors, clothing, and personal property before arriving.
How do I make phone or video calls with an inmate?
Inmates usually cannot receive incoming calls, but they may place outgoing calls through the approved phone provider. Video visits, if available, must be scheduled through the provider or facility system and may require an account.
How do I send mail to an inmate?
Address mail with the inmate full name and inmate ID number, plus the correct facility mailing address. Mail is inspected, and items such as cash, contraband, or unapproved materials are not accepted.
How does the commissary work?
Commissary lets inmates buy approved items such as snacks, hygiene products, and stationery. Family or friends may be able to deposit funds through the approved payment service, but limits and fees may apply.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Diboll Correctional Center?
Bail usually applies to people with pending criminal cases, not sentenced state inmates housed here. If the person was recently arrested, contact the county jail or court handling the case to learn the bond amount and accepted payment methods.
What happens during the intake process at Diboll Correctional Center and when will the inmate appear in the system?
During intake, staff confirm identity, review records, assign housing, screen for medical needs, and enter the person into the custody system. Records often take several hours to update, so a newly booked or transferred person may not appear online right away.
