How to Find an Inmate at Rufus H. Duncan Geriatric Facility
To find an inmate, use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility roster or TDCJ custody search. Public inmate records typically list the person’s name, identification number, booking or custody date, current location, charges or offense information, sentence details when available, and custody status. New records are not always searchable right away after booking, transfer, or intake. Processing can take several hours, and updates may not appear immediately if the inmate was recently moved or is still being processed. If the search does not show a result, check the spelling, try again later, or contact the facility or TDCJ records staff for current custody information.
