Jasper, TX Glen Ray Goodman Transfer Facility View
Glen Ray Goodman Transfer Facility is a Texas Department of Criminal Justice transfer facility located in Jasper, Jasper County, Texas. It is a state-operated correctional facility, not the county jail for most new local arrests.

Its role is to support intake, transfer, and housing needs for the Texas correctional system rather than to serve as the primary holding facility for local pretrial detainees.
Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Glen Ray Goodman Transfer Facility
Members of the public can use the official inmate search link on this page to look for someone held at the facility. Inmate rosters and search tools typically list basic custody information such as the person’s name, booking or received date when available, charges or offense information, assigned facility, and custody status. Records do not always appear immediately after an inmate arrives because processing, identification, and system updates can take several hours or longer. If the person was recently arrested in Jasper County, also check with the Jasper County jail or sheriff’s office, because new local arrests may be held there before any transfer to state custody.
