White County Arrest and Booking Process

When someone is arrested in White County, the arresting officer brings them to the jail on Depot Street for booking. Staff take fingerprints and a mugshot. They enter the charges into the system. Bond is set based on the charges. All of this goes into the 72 hour booking record. Tennessee law under Tenn. Code Ann. § 40-7-118 allows officers to issue a citation instead of a full arrest for some misdemeanors. When they do arrest, they must document why a citation was not given.

After booking, the inmate has an initial court appearance. Tennessee requires this hearing "without unnecessary delay." Judges review probable cause, inform the accused of charges, and consider bail. Tenn. Code Ann. § 40-11-118 governs how bail hearings work. The jail holds inmates until they post bond, have charges dropped, or receive a sentence. Released inmates are removed from the active roster but stay in the system as a historical booking record.
