Fouke Police Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The jail intake process at the Fouke Police Jail includes each of the following steps:

You will be placed in a holding cell. If there are a lot of arrests, you will have to wait, sometimes for many hours, before you get processed.

First you will answer some questions, like your legal name, street address, birth date and an emergency contact, and you will also be asked about your psychological and medical history. Next, you’ll be given an inmate ID number and you will get fingerprinted. Then, all personal property will be taken away from you and stored until you get discharged from jail.

You will be allowed to use the telephone so you can talk to a member of your family, friend, or somebody else who can help you get out.

If they expect that you will make bail and be released quickly, you will be allowed to wear your street clothes, if not you will be issued a jail issued jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

Once bail has been posted, you will get released from jail. The discharge process can take between 15 minutes to hours or even all day long. In other words the faster you post bail, the faster you will get released. Also, how fast you get released depends on whether you’ve got a cash bond or if the judge must decide on the amount of bail to be set. For lesser charges, you will simply be booked and get released without having to post bail. When you have served your sentence and are given a discharge date, you should plan to be discharged at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

If an inmate has fines or are required to pay restitution then they will be subject to garnishment of their commissary/trust account. If the inmate has a garnishment, then money to pay them will be taken from the inmate’s bank account. In some cases it may be a percentage or the entire amount of the obligation, but the actual percentage depends on the circumstances. We recommend that inmates talk to the counselor at their facility and try to find out. You can also try to make an arrangement so that only a percentage of your commissary funds are taken, instead of all your funds take at one time.
