The DLMCJC, also known as the Tulsa County Jail, originally opened in 1997 with a capacity of 1714 beds. An expansion in 2017 added mental health units and open dorm-style units, increasing total capacity to 2020 beds. Staffed 24/7 by detention officers, medical, and mental health professionals, DLMCJC prioritizes inmate welfare and rehabilitation.

Inmates at DLMCJC have access to various opportunities, including religious services, educational classes, and skill-building programs aimed at reducing recidivism. Each year, numerous individuals graduate with a GED, underscoring the facility's commitment to education and personal development. Additionally, inmates can engage in work programs to acquire new skills.

Upon arrest, individuals are booked into DLMCJC, where intake officers review arrest reports and conduct thorough searches to prevent the entry of contraband. Prisoners are also evaluated for injuries or medical conditions, ensuring their well-being before admission to the facility.

After processing, inmates are informed of their charges, and their biometric data is recorded for identification purposes. They are permitted to make phone calls to arrange bond payments or notify loved ones. Further assessments are conducted to determine appropriate housing within the jail.

In the Booking area, officers continuously monitor inmates and employ de-escalation techniques to manage uncooperative behavior. In cases of violence or disruption, inmates are temporarily held in secure cells until they regain composure.

Inmates unable to post bond are provided jail uniforms and transferred to housing units for custody and care throughout their stay at DLMCJC. This comprehensive approach to inmate management prioritizes safety, security, and rehabilitation within the facility.

Tulsa County Jail Quick Links

The jail is designed with "pods," featuring a large common area with affixed tables and attached seats, and individual cells typically on two levels. Inmates spend certain times in their cells and other times congregating in the pod for activities like playing cards, games, reading, or watching television. Movement outside the pod, such as trips to the commissary, library, or recreation area, occurs under the constant supervision of unarmed correctional officers. The environment in the county jail is considered less stressful than a prison because the sentences are much shorter.

The jail offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Alternatively, setting up an account through a third-party phone company may entail high fees per minute of usage. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.

Books and magazines ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. The Jail enforces this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.

Inmate workers are chosen based on conduct and cooperation with staff. Participation in the community service program can sometimes reduce sentences. Commissary is available weekly, with orders submitted via kiosk two days in advance. On holidays, there may be increased spending limits. Upon receiving commissary items, inmates must present their ID, check their order, and sign for it in the presence of the commissary employee. Indigent inmates are provided with all essential basic hygiene items including USPS stamps and writing materials.
