Texas Prison Inmate Search

Do you need to find someone in Texas prison? If a family member or loved one has been sent to prison, you might be wondering how to find them. Probably you want to write to them and stay in touch while they do their time.

Texas Prison Inmate Search

I used to be able to display a form on this page that let folks search for inmates within TDC but the folks at TDCJ have changed the way things work and I cannot make it work now. I hope to have a solution soon. Meanwhile please continue to send your questions to me and I will keep trying to help y’all. Sorry for the hassle.

You can also check these other pages I have with information about Texas prison, Federal prison, and, soon to come, county jails in Texas.

  1. Wife got sentenced 2 years tdc for burglary of habitation 2nd degree felony non violent non 3g. She has served 12 months so far in county jail so far . They have her time served credit. She hasn’t been in trouble 8 years prior to this . Will she have to go to prison for a number or will she be paroled from county jail. She had never been to prison before

    1. Hey Jason, so sorry I didn’t see this earlier man. No one can say for sure, because TDC doesn’t have a specific formula, but with her already with 12 months done that looks good to me. Even if she does have to go, it will be for a real short time and she will do fine. Here’s hoping she does her time in county and gets home soon. Peace ~ Magnum

  4. How do I find out if someone is “paper” ready to be sent to TDC? A friend of mine was informed this morning that she is “paper ready” which means she can be moved to Prison at any time. How can I find that information (paper ready) out here?

    1. that infromation is not avalible to the public for security reasons. the officer can find out if shes location ready (paper ready) but cant give a specific date out. most pull within the next two chain nights.(pull= leave to diagnostics aka tdc chain night= specific day of week county transfers inmates

  5. I’m considering that Jose Antonio Sanchez Jr. To go to another halfway house for more than 3 months…he’s out here messing up hanging around another felon and his ex-wife is a felon…and he also been communicating by phone talking to me(his ex-wife) he wanted me to go to Abilene…he’s been partying with his home boy roy roman…drinking beer and drugging…he just needs to be off the streets and jail or halfway house…Just Concerning!!
